  1. Oh ok Friday! You got this Good Luck [emoji256] and know we're rooting for you. Take advantage of the pain meds to get up and walk as soon as you can. Walking all the air they put into you before going home. Make sure you have all your pills you'll need at home to stay comfortable. Don't push yourself to do too much too fast. Stick to your surgeons instructions. They're not mean they're trying to help you so there are no complications. Be patient with yourself. New normal is weird. If your surgeon is like mine he wants you to have best possible outcome (then his numbers look good too) [emoji23]
    You go GIRL! [emoji1319] [emoji322]
    I can't wait to come back and let you know how I did! Thanks so much for your kind words!! I will DEFINITELY do all the above!!

    It's MY time!


  2. I went for my Covid test this morning and tested positive! I have no symptoms and have not been around anyone with symptoms. The only places I’ve been in the past two weeks were doctors office and radiology all for my preop testing while wearing a mask and everyone else had one on too. This really sucks now I’m postponed again for the third time! Starting to get discouraged after doing the liquid diet three times. Praying I don’t develop any symptoms!
    I am sooo sorry to hear this. It sucks even more because you were actually doing the right thing. I hate this crap.

    It's MY time!


  3. My surgery is Friday...if I didn't know any better...I would think that I wrote this post. I feel the same way. I don't know if this is a natural feeling. I have been telling myself that IT IS. Not everyone goes in (as some of these posts would have you believe) without any feelings of fear. I am more scared that if I don't get this reset...I will leave this earth waaaay too early. I'm going to do the BEST I can. If this tool doesn't work for me...it won't be because I didn't try.

    Being alone is honestly the only thing that is bothering me TODAY. I don't know how I'll feel tomorrow. I deal with these feelings as they come. But one thing is for certain...I/We will get through this.

    It's MY time!


  4. We have ALL...no matter how confident...had those same feelings in some way. Just KNOW that you are exactly where you are supposed to be. Right now. This moment. Take comfort in that. It is YOUR time. I am scheduled for 5/15...I only discussed MY DECISION with my husband...4 days ago.

    I decided that whether he agreed with me or not...this is something that I NEED to do. He was supportive but I couldn't be sure. But I knew what I havw decided will make me the best version of ME. I need this reset.

    I'm happy for you...if no one else is.

    Love & Light

  5. Had it done Monday and for ME....it was terrible. The only way to go into it...is to expect the worse and look at it as the only thing standing between you and your ever after. I made the mistake of not doing that...and was terribly disappointed. BTW...got my negative test results today. So yayyy...there's that. So it was worth it.

    It's MY time!


  6. Soooo....my surgeon requires a COVID-19 test done prior to my surgery in 5/15. I had it done yesterday. MY GOD. With everything going on right now...patients are not allowed in the medical offices here for testing. It was done in my car. I'm gripping the steering wheel..the inside roof of my car!! It was THE most horrible medical experience I've ever had to date. I really can't find the words. When it was over...I cried all the way home. Driving and crying.

    It felt like a bleach and ammonia dipped hot pencil was stuck up my nose and into my brain! I swear its not an exaggeration. I just wanted to vent. I am hoping that I test negative. I have only been outside of my house twice and did everything I could to prevent my risk of exposure.

    It's MY time!
