Talking Surgery Date




I must admit that I am cheesing from ear to ear. I had my pre-op admission test with the surgery center yesterday. And what a sigh of relief I feel all over. My surgery is scheduled for Next Tuesday NOV 10th 2009. I feel with every once of my being that this is the right decision for me at this very important time in my life. I feel like for the first time I am truly doing something for myself instead of others. I almost feel selfish. I must admit it feels good. WOW I could just find the highest mountian and scream with excitement. I feel at peace with my decision. Thanks for all of your support. I continue to look forward to the support after my surgery and I hope I can be a support to others.
