  1. I had surgery the same day as you! I have felt like a basket case of emotions, too, so it's good to know I'm not alone. Sorry I'm not more of a help.
  2. Oh, I'm sorry, I realized that you asked why not May, not why not many. April 4 is the earliest the surgeon could get me in, so that is the date I have scheduled, I'm just feeling like maybe I should wait to do what is best for my students and wait until June. If it's May, I just feel like I might as well wait until June.
  3. I have been driving myself crazy trying to decide if surgery in April or June would be better. I'm a teacher, so I'll have 8 weeks off for summer, wouldn't have to get a substitute, less disruption for my students, and more time before I have to return from surgery. If I do surgery in April, I will be able to do more intense exercise all summer and have a head start on my recover before summer starts. I've done a pros and cons list and I'm even for both dates. Do you guys have any ideas?
