MamaOnlyHasTwoHands reacted to Frustr8 in Tomorrow is the big day....any advice?My day will be here in about six weeks. I plan to take a leisurely relaxed walk around my neighborhood. Ohio is pretty in the summertime, notice the flowers blooming, the green grass, the clear blue skies and white puffy clouds, I live far enough away from Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo and even Columbus. that we don't have heavy traffic and smoggy pollution. Although we do have some rolling hills in Mount Vernon my own neighborhood is pretty flat. Might speak to my neighbors if they are out in their,yards or barbecuing. As it gets closer to night I will catch lightening bugs like I did when. I was a little Frustr8. Then either watch TV or read my Bible. I will have made Tomkitten a nice meal, the favorites he likes because I will still be finishing up my diet and probably,on clear liquids before going NPO. Then I will make sure everything is by the front door, because I have to be in Columbus at 5AM for my 7 AM surgery. I will spend the rest of the evening loving Tomkitten, talking and laughing. I have no doubts that I will live through this, I trust Dr Needleman with my life, he is a wonderful surgeon,but also a very.calm professional,person.
Before his older brother died 10 years ago there were things, if I knew he was facing death, I wish I could have told him, I will tell Tomkitten those things. And then I will say my prayers, and trust the same God who has watched over me for my entire life, will be watching and guiding my surgeon's hand to do a quick bloodless smooth surgery and perform the miracles he is capable of. And when I wake up I will be safe in a recovery room starting my future days. That is what September 4th into September 5th will mean to me. ???? -
If you wake up in pain (some do, some don’t) and wonder what you did, remember it’s a few days of discomfort for the rest of your life and hospitals have the best drugs! Good luck! -

MamaOnlyHasTwoHands got a reaction from GreenTealael in Tomorrow is the big day....any advice?So tomorrow is the big day. I’m really excited. I mean it’s been a long time coming. Haha. But I’ve also hit my freaking out day today. I’m not second guessing, just the anxiety mixed with the million what ifs. Any last minute advice?
