Hi Jill,

Hope all goes well for you! I know what you mean, I wish my husband could have come with me too when I met with the surgeon. He actually did but was in the waiting room with our autistic son. So while he drove me there & was there for me (at a distance), I was still meeting with the surgeon alone but all went well. Don't know how it goes with your surgeon but when I met with mine on Monday, we had a group meeting with the other few who will also be getting sleeved about the entire procedure. Sometimes I do think ignorance is bliss because after hearing all he had to say & all the gloom & doom of what could potentially happen, I was nearly going to back out! But then after the group meeting, he took us in one by one in an exam room & did just a bit of pressing on my liver to see how fatty it is & then he just asked if I had any questions (which I did & had them written down). We went over my questions & then I told him how important it was to me to have summer surgery due to my special needs son school schedule & he was so kind & made sure he went to the front desk to tell his secretary to try to get me in for July surgery. So far I'm scheduled for July 16th, unless they don't get my insurance approval back in time (they should!) So it was really no biggie to be meeting with the surgeon alone.

Just think of all you'll have to tell your husband when he returns home!! Sending you some Pixie Dust on your appointment & hoping all goes well for you!!
