HELLO, I AM SCHEDULED FOR SURGERY DECEMBER 1ST. :thumbup:I HAD THE CHOICE OF HAVING SURGERY THE DAY BEFORE THANKSGIVING. NO THANK YOU!! I STARTED THE PROCESS JULY 5TH. IT HAS BEEN A SEEMINGLY LONG ROAD BUT MINE HAS NOT BEEN NEARLY AS LONG AS OTHERS THAT I HAVE TALKED TO RECENTLY. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING TO KNOW OTHERS GOING THRU THE SAME PROCESS.
