jaylou 6 Posted August 18, 2015 I started my journey earlier this year. It's been along 6+ months, however in the past couple weeks it has flown right by. I find out when I have to be at the hospital today for my surgery tomorrow. I think this is going to be a long day for me waiting for them to call. Hopefully, I will be near the top of the patient list. If they go alphabetical... well I'm screwed. My last name start with U. ???? I'm very excited to start this new chapter in my life. There is so many things I want to do that I have not done before and things that I have done but I wanted you again only this time they should be a lot easier to do. I have a lot of support for my family including my 8 year old niece, who is one of the reasons I want to do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jennolsen 140 Posted August 19, 2015 I am lucky enough to have the first spot on my day. Arrival time 5:30am surgery to begin at 7:30. I agree early is best. Anytime I have had surgery I always ask to be first case. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
