That's so exciting!

I'm going crazy that I have to wait until May or June. I just want to go right now. Seriously, I'm going crazy. I'm in this forum every night. By May I will be a pre-op expert. Then I'm on to post-op expert.

I remember back in Oct/Nov...it seemed like Feb was years away, but its here in a few days, so hold on and get all the information you can, and before you know it your month for surgery will be here....

Just saying hi. I hope to pay my deposit with Dr. Garcia later this week. *fingers crossed* that I can get a March 18th surgery date.

Hey, I'll probably see you there. My doctor is Dr. Garcia, but it is at MiDoctor hospital. My name is Tim, by the way. I'm traveling with my mother and a co-worker who is also having the surgeryr.

I'm traveling with my mom too... She is a nurse so I like having the "medical back up". Plus, she's mom... Perhaps we will do laps in the halls and race! ... Are you staying an extra night in San Diego? We are doing an extra night to relax b4 flying back to Ohio...
