Got My Official Date!

It's June 4th!! They asked if I wanted to to may 21st but I'm not prepared to have surgery next Monday. I need to prepare mentally for this. I have been doing just that for the last 6 months, but to me next Monday just seemed to close and I haven't prepared myself that fast. I'm ok and excited for June 4th!!

    Congrats Furby! I am so jealous of all of you June sleevers! I don't go until July 9. In actuality, though, I know the time is going to fly by.

  • You should've taken the appointment in May. That way you'd be ready for any 4th. of July BBQ's. Just joking. LOL. Best of luck to you. You're on your way!

  • Lol thank u.. I know but I've never really been a BBQ kinda person.. food I mean even tho I can/did eat the heck out of watermelon lol

I guess I am just the impatient type. I would have taken the May date!!!! Congrats on getting an official date though

I'm hoping to get an appointment as early as possible (within the next month or so?). When I go home too Hawaii & visit all my old police buddies, they're going to be shocked! I'll say an extra prayer for you on June 4th. You'll do just fine.

I thought about it, but the thing is that I'm taking 2 weeks off work and using vacation and we make our schedules 3 weeks in advance so there was really no way for me to do next week. Plus I really need to prepare myself it is an emotional and life long thing.. :)

I hope u get one soon. Thank you, the only thing I'm nervous about is the paid and nausea.

Furby036, don't think about the pain & such. That only puts negative vibes into your system. Be positive and think if all the great things that lay in front of you: shopping for new clothes, and what girl doesn't want t go shopping for new clothes?

Say a prayer & ask the good Lord to help you through this. He will.

Yay for you! YOU need to be ready, so glad you thought it through! :) Some of us have been ready for awhile and we are having to wait! July 3rd is my date - hopefully it will be here before I know it. Good luck June 4th!

There are meds for the pain and nausea. It was minimal for me and I am the biggest baby. Focus your energy in other areas of preparation. I made a list of things I wanted to do for ME, before surgery. It was a helpful process....no regrets!

Congrats on your date! I too took a later date than initially and I have no regrets. You did what was best for YOU. And my pain was very minimal. Sore, yes. And I had no nausea at all. The meds are so good you don't have to be in pain at all. Just push that button, it was my best friend. Another thing that helped me in the hospital was a heating pad.
