It’s hard to believe that my surgery is just nine days away and I wanted to thank everybody for their advice and support. The most difficult part for me was making this decision, and this is when wonderful people on the forum helped me a lot. Now, I just can’t wait to get it over with.
I’ve been surprisingly calm since the decision has been made with just a few rough patches in between, but feeling a little blue today. The house is fully prepared for what is to come and I am running out of things to do. I still have nine days to go, but I am almost done packing for the hospital and even prepared a discharge bag so that my husband doesn’t forget anything. Loss of control will be one of the biggest challenges for me, but I am trying to look at it as a new experience.
I will ask my husband to give you an update, but he’ll probably do it after the second surgery. Or, may be Susan will post for me, will you, Susan? Please, wish me luck and I am looking forward to talking to you from the other side and paying forward to people who are struggling with making this difficult decision.
