OMG Surgery on Thursday

[lamsunshine 2]

Well I have great news. I was sitting at work and the head surgeon on Hunington VA called me. My first thought was now what, I really thought he was going to tell me I could not have my surgery for some reason. Then he says to me can you be here tomorrow afternoon, I was like excuse me, and he said we have an opening for Thursday can you be here tomorrow afternoon. Well called mom and she was like lets go. So I am now running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I don't even now what I need to bring with me to the hospital, and tomorrow is all clear liquids. I had to go to my daughter's school and tell her. I don't even have time to be nervous I have to much to do. I actually screamed at work, good thing the boss was not there. Well I don't think I will have internet access at the hospital but will be bringing my lap top. Please everyone say a prayer for me. WOW I'm still in shock!!!:scared0::ohmy::biggrin0:

Awesome! You will surely be in my prayers. Don't over pack, you won't use 1/2 of what you bring. The most important things to pack are:

- baggy clothes to come home in ( your tummy will be swollen and tender)

- chap stick (anesthesia dries you mouth and lips and it's a little while before you can drink)

- personal pillow (I can't sleep without my own pillow)

Best of luck to you.

Thanks everyone, I have calmed down a little bit, but still very excited. I have worked very hard for this surgery, and can not believe I will be heading that way tomorrow. I did even have to buy any of my supplies. I guess I will have to pick them up on the long ride home. Still not nervous, more excited then nervous. I'm sooo Happy!!!! Finally
