I am so sorry you have so much going on. Don't be stressed about your surgery though, you will be fine. Just think of this you are giving your husband something surprising to come home to. Keep thinking of his reaction when he sees you dropping tons of weight. Don't emotional eat this weekend, it won't do anything good for you, it's like a bottomless pit , never ending, I have been there before to. Just keep busy, do things with your daughter, prepare for recovery, and think positive thoughts. Good luck.

:w00t: Hugs for you.

My hubby deployed 1 week after my surgery. I didn't get to give him any good send-off sex . I keep him updated with pictures each month and we talk on the web cam several times a week so he gets to "see" me then. He'll be home next month for his R&R leave. I do have one kid at home still but he's old enough to feed himself and I do some cooking but it's nice not to have the pressure of cooking a big dinner for hubby and trying to figure out my new eating style...gotta look for the positives.

Do you have someone to help you with the kiddo for those first few days after surgery? Keep busy and time will fly by and he'll be back home before you know it. I can't believe it's been almost 5 months for us already.
