  • Off to Hospital 3/1 Pre-op

    Well, Here I am sitting at the computer which seems to be my favorite place lately as I cannot go to bed unless I am very tired. Tomorrow at 10am, I am going to Charlotte Main Hospital for my Pre-op appointment.It all seems to be coming together now.

    Wish me a good day and hope all of you have one as well

            It went really well today. My appointment was 10 am. We got there at 9:50am .They took us right away and we were out of there by 11:30am.
            They took my blood, gave me an EKG, and the anesthesiologist talked with me.
            That was basically it.
            So it is now 10 days until I get to go to the hospital to feel better
