Tomorrow 10-29, IS IT

[Patterba 6]

The center called to tell me to report at 6:15 tomorrow morning.. YIKES, OMG, and YIPEEE all at the same time.

It sounds like I may be one of the first surgeries in the morning. I am so excited, so nervous, so glad this day has finally come about. I hope I can sleep tonite (even though I will be watching the Phillies). TOO MANY emotions going on right now.

My family just stares at me as I blab away.. I have dreamed about this for several years, always backing out of a seminar or pursuing any further action, but now I AM SO READY. YIPEEE FOR ME>.

I have to stay overnight , but when I get home on Friday I will be posting on the post op side of the board and let you all know how it went..

I love that I have this venue to let out my emotions... cause right now I want to SING>>>>LA LA LA..

PS (no I am not nuts, just so happy I can not contain myself).

Have a great day.

A Big CONGRATS Barb, I am sure right now you are absolutely floating. I sooo understand the reflecting of all it took to get you to this very point in time, and just how elated you are.

I truly believe that with this entire process, each step and how we preceive and react to it is what will ultimately decide how we finish this new chapter to our lifes story.

Thanks Guys.

I can not contain my excitement (and I do realize there will be soreness and gas and all of the fun go alongs afterwards).

But for once I truly do feel this is a new leash on life for me.

I even started to set up a blog to chronicle for my own satisfaction and if others want to come along.... that is fine.. the more the merrier.

I am going to the BarixClinic in Langhorne.. short drive from home, very convienent, and very nice staff and I love my surgeon Dr.Boe. So I am very comfortable with all aspects of this experience. Thanks for your supportive messages.

Good luck to all.
