I am in Peoria and looking for the same group support you are. Not sure we are close enough to meet. Best of luck to you, and if you think you want to try and meet, let me know.
Wow I am so pleased to see so many people staring their journey the same time I am. I have pre op appointments this week and surgery Oct. 6. Excited and nervous, eating lots of stuff I know will be leaving my system. I could use some support, tell me suggestions to get through these next few weeks!
Me too! Did preop testing this week, surgeon visit next week and surgery on October 6. I am getting nervous. You too? Excited and yet so nervous. Such a major life changing moment about to happen. I feel unprepared.
