I sit here all freshly clean stomach scrubbed with special sponge in a maxi dress ( to protect my sutures) ready to go. Waaaay too early at 4:45 when I have to be at hospital at 6:00 AM. It's only a twenty minute drive to the hospital. My husband went back to sleep but I am afraid to. My dogs can't figure out why the heck I am up so early. I am terrified and excited at the same time. Looks like I have to crush all my medications myself because Walgreens won't compound them which I am not happy about. I am afraid I won't be able to keep them down when I have to take them. So many trepidations yet I go forth. I will write back later when I wake up
