Default Finally, I've got my surgery date. YAY!!! I'm happy scared!

Well after all this time I've finally been given a date. After complaining, I was told I would get a call on the 21st of this month. This did'nt happen, so I left it as late as I could before phoning them. Apology was given for not getting back to me but they would endeavor to call me the next day. That was today Tuesday. Anyway, around 4pm I got a call and my date is 6th Oct. Great for me. My wedding aniversary is 5th October, I have my 3rd laser treatment on 3rd Oct. So everything works out nicely. Since I've been told I feel like screaming out loud, went shopping with my daughter and grand daugther and had this ridiculous smirk on my face and just felt like screaming out loud. Finally, I gave in a told my daughter that I had my date. Now I ought to just pray that everything goes well.

in anticipation.
H.

I can't believe we both got our surgeries worked out at the same time
A few weeks ago when I was there, they said I'd be in the hospital a total of 3 days if all goes well, so Friday, Sat, and sent home Sunday night.. Hopefully it goes that well and I can be your update buddy for Monday, but if something goes wrong and I have to stay in longer or if someone's too lazy to come discharge me on a Sunday, I have your email written down with all the emergency numbers so my boyfriend can let you know to have someone else ready to update on TT for you.

But, everything's gonna go GREAT for us both, I know! We're so gonna rock this =]
