Amytugs sleevy thread! Leavin 3/1!

5 days! FIVE!!

I'm so excited and ready to get this show on the road. Wrote short letters to my children and have my bags packed. Cashiers check and cash in my wallet, check. Gotta get the AT&T mx package and I think I'm ready!!

I'm going to Tijuana to Hospital MI doctor, and will be sleeved by dr. Garcia. I feel very confident in my choice. :). I have to wake up at 2:30 am to head out the door at 3:45. Gonna get to the airport around 4:45 and the plane leaves 2 hours later. I don't think I'll get much sleep thurs night. Lol

i started my journey last April. I feel as though I've been trough a lot to get me to this point and being so close feels like a dream. I'm not well off and I haven't been thin since I was 16. I just keep repeating in my head "things like this never happen to me!" And it's happening. It's really truly going to happen for me. ( well, lord willing). Praise god!

So I suppose this will be my countdown/update thread. )

Hey guys! My alarm was set for 2:30 am but I woke up at 2:22 and turned it off. My stomach isnin knots. I guess this is it!

Edit: I'm sitting here at our tiny airport. I got here way too early. Yawn. They don't even open the security line for another 35 minutes. It's 5:11 am and I'm exhausted.

Dear Jesus, be with Amy and help her to have a safe surgery. Be with Dr. Garcia and the nurses. Help the

surgery to be a success for Amy. Please heal her during her recovery period.

Amen :rolleyes:
