I'm a Newbie Surgery date 11/13/09 Needs help coping

It seems like everything is coming up so fast. I attended the seminar 3rd week of October this year, the ff week I had my consultation , 2 days after I had my endoscopy, and that same week, I met with my nutritionist. I also had my psych evaluation a week after that. I waited two weeks for the approval. I remember calling the doctor's office regarding pre-cert results almost every day. Then 2 days ago I got my surgery date which is on 11/13. I have a week of liquid diet before the surgery. Now I feel the excitement, apprehension and so much more. I have 5 kids & they are 7 yrs old & younger. I hope the surgery would work for me with no complications. I don't know if Im scared or excited , now that it's going to be less than a week to my surgery . I would just like to know if there's anybody there who went through the same experience. How did you cope up with this many kids after the surgery? I used to eat kids food like chiken nuggets, pizza, mac & cheese, fruit cups etc. we also love to go to buffet or all you can eat restaurants. Is it going to affect my kids nutrition as well? How did you take care of your little kiddos during this time? I also love to drink coffee. Did you drink coffee and eat yogurt during pre-surgery liquid diet? Please I need your advise. Thanks much. :-)
