Crazy Dreams

As my surgery date comes closer, I find that I am having CRAZY dreams.... Last night I was dreaming that I forgot to do my pre-op diet and I liver was soooo big that they had to pump me with twice as much air. I was so big that they needed a crane to get me to my hospital bed... Good Lord...

I also dreamed that they used green mint gum to hold my incisions shut...

Did anyone else have these crazy dreams?

That sounds like the kind of dreams we have when we are pregnant? Maybe go online and see what they mean. I'm not a professional, but I'm just interpreting these that you are excited but concerned about being ready for surgery and recovery. Trust me, you are! Don't worry, be excited!!! :-)

I think Sandra is right on track. But this post did make me laugh out loud, Sorry~~~ Funny how we stress and think crazy things and dream them too. It is the fear of the unknown. Not knowing what the scars will look like, will they be big, hurt, itch? I wondered that. I did not stay on the pre-op diet to the letter and was afraid about the liver too, even so I asked my Dr. after the surgery if my liver was big, he said it was small, flat and looked healthy!! And I think we just feel so big and ready to get this body thin again that we are a little embarrassed by getting undressed and exposed for the surgery itself. But when you get to the operating room you will just be so humbled by those there to help you and how sweet they are and not in a condecending way either, really caring. So like Sandra says, " Don't worry, be excited~~you are about to venture into a new and wonderful life! Be happy and blessed.
