This is my first time posting. Getting a bit nervous about my surgery. I am 9 days out. Scheduled for the 31st, with final consult, and blood work on the 28th. My mind is going about a thousand miles an hour.

Thank you all for the support.. It is really great to know that I do have a place to go where others have shared the same type of challenges and surgery. I am looking forward to the after affect. I have two amazing children. One is 14, the other 3. I am looking forward to running around with both, playing all sorts of sports with them, and especially taking hikes with the whole family. My wife Dorene, is very supportive as well. She is taking next week and the week after off to help with my healing time. I have certainly been reading about other members here who have been very successful with the surgery, and the of course the ones who have had struggles. Just scary thinking about my eating habits and what they will become. We get so accustomed to the same thing in life, and when faced with changed we get a little overwhelmed. Part of life though. I will keep you all updated with progress.
