Hey all! I'm new around these parts

My surgery is scheduled for January 7th and I was wondering if there are any others schedule for the big day in January 2013 ...?

I had my final appointments today. I call tonight to see when I need to go in on Monday. Everyone was super nice and it helped but me at ease. I am nervous to say the least. Good news is the overnight rooms have wifi. Yay, I won't be alone when I have my phone/kindle/laptop.

JUST GOT MY DATE....January 22nd! 7 days before my birthday haha, but I'll be fine I think. Excited but scared.

Good Luck to everyone and thank you for the updates my date is the 28 and Im very happy but still scare,

That's what I thought too. Had books loaded on my kindle, music on my iPod and everything else on my phone. When I got to me room my hubby brought everything except my tablet bag. So no chargers. My phone had 2% charge. Lasted long enough for me to text my hubby and tell him. I managed to read 3 pages on the kindle, and my iPod was in the case with the cords. Really though I slept much of the first afternoon through the night so it wasn't so bad.

Just got my report time for surgery on Monday! I cant believe the two weeks went so fast!! Super excited! !

I am from Jay, OK... Far NE corner of OK. I'm hoping to have my surgery at the end of the year... Keep your fingers crossed! lol How are you feeling? How'd the surgery go?

Good to be back home

I am now day 3 after surgury. Doing better than yesterday, I gotten rid of some gas and coughed up some nasty stuff. I am still not getting in enough liquids, I can only drink 1/2 my protien shake. I did eat about 3oz of greek yogurt today. I don't have any staples, I have dermabond on my 5 wholes. They are very small except one above my belly button that one is about 1 1/2 in. I don't think you will be able to see the little one after they heal. Hang in there ladies it will be better tomorrow!
