sugarmamma7 2 Posted July 7, 2011 I got a call this morning from the hospital that my surgury is scheduled for July 26. I had no idea that it was going to happen so fast. My feelings immediately went from excitement to fear. I guess that is normal. The first task is trying to find babysitters for all my children. I have seven of them lol. I have four of my own and three step children that I take care of full time. I have a wonderful supportive husband, but his ex is not that helpful at all. This is all so sureal. I am very excited to start my journey. I have to go in for bloodwork tommorow and an akg. I have a pre-op apointment july 14th. I can't believe this is happening still kind of shocked. Is there anyone who has the same date as me? Would love to have some sisters I am so happy right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Papa Jack 86 Posted July 8, 2011 Samething happened today to me also. I go July 26 also. I know how you feel. I was shocked, worried, then happy. Now mine is as a outpatient. I saw on another forum where some women where asking to stay a day or so in the hospital because of the kids. They get more rest away from home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
