Getting Banded in 5 hours!!

What a day I had yesterday...

I did my pre-op stuff on Monday and got the "all clear". Got myself all psyched up for my banding which was going to be on Friday, Jan. 22nd, then I get a call yesterday from the surgeons office saying the doctor cannot do it on Friday and is moving it to Thursday, the day before. Well, the problem is that my hubby took Friday off of work, not Thursday. I have all of my arrangements made for my children too. If I don't do it on Thursday, then I have to wait two weeks for the next available date. I am so sad!!! My hubby tells me just to wait for the next available date because he is pretty sure he can't get the day off with that short of notice. I let the surgeons office know that I will take the Feb. 5th date. Well, guess what? My hubby must have heard in my voice, how sad I was and he called me back at work to tell me that I was having it done on Thursday!! My hubby called his boss, explained everything to him and they just switched out his days, so he off on Thursday. Then he took care of the arrangements with our children. He then called the surgeons office and made sure that the Thursday slot was still open and yes it was... so here I am!!

I have the best husband in the world... he took care of everything and made it happen!! I am truly blessed!!

Talk to you all later tonight... wish me luck!!
