Omg I feel like I'm always "eating". I have had to set alarms on my activity monitor and/or phone to remind me to "eat" and if I am not "eating" I have my water in my face. I'm getting everything in but dang never thought I'd be saying that I'm sick of having to eat

Tomorrow August 15th. Counting down now and doing final prep around the house for afterwards. Nervous and excited!

Thank you so much for the info! My husband has a tendency to focus on the risks versus the benefits and gets all paranoid. I know I'll definitely be sending him home to sleep! i hope I am as happy as you have been- I've been happy with the process thus far.

My husband and two others know about my surgery right now and I'll likely tell my family after and once I am healed. i agree about the short term disability. I have submitted all my necessary paperwork, have my time off as leave of absence approved and use sick pay for the first unpaid week and hopefully the STD will kick in right from there. Hope all goes well with that for you too!

Thank you so much for your words. I think I really just needed to hear from someone who had to do it on their own as well.

Me too! Can't wait!
