  • Surgery is tomorrow

    Tomorrow is the DAY. AHHHHHhhh!!!!!!

    Actually I am doing pretty good, almost to the point of it being surreal, or that it hasn't really sunk in. I don't know what else I can do to prepare, but I am spending my day trying to keep my mid off it, and being positive. I'll do my best to at least update my blog afterward, to let everybody know how it went...

    I don't really know what to expect the next few weeks. I think the books, and other people sharing there experiences help, but I just can't really know until doing it myself. Here goes nothing!

        Good luck, Meg! You made the right decision in having the surgery. I wish you all the best for a speedy and uneventful recovery. I had my surgery on Dec. 6, so next year let's plan to have a cybertoast to celebrate your first anniversary and my fortieth.
