Rohler1520's thread

Okay Amy I took your idea about the personal thread, what a great idea. Ok well I got my pedi today with a friend of mine and it really helped me to relax. I didn't get the neon color I had talked about because my friend has breast cancer that went with me so I got the breast cancer pink on my toes for her. Then we spent the rest of the day together and it was great until I got ready to leave. She is the strongest person I know and has been through so much in her life but when she hugged me good bye she started to cry and then I started to cry. I told her I would be fine and not to worry and that I would be back before here next Chemo treatment. That was the first emotional breakdown I have had. Actually, I was only crying because she was crying, that's what good friends do right? Well anyway big girl panties are on and I am going to bed(or try anyway)so I can sleep for a few hours. I have to leave the house at 3:20am eastern time. I will keep u guys up on my journey as much as possible.

Richler thts how I was the day I arrived. And tonight. I'm still exhausted but I'm a side sleeper and being forced to sleep on my back is proving difficult for me. "/

I'm praying for your sirgery tomorrow.

All will be well! God speed healing to you!

My friend was sleeved last night. He called me post op and sounded really good considering. His name is Dennis. Say hi to him if you see him. I'm so happy you get to get your surgery out of the way early. Good luck! I know you'll do great.

Well I haven't been able to sleep all night. I think I have slept a total of 2 hours. There are 3 of us and I made the mistake of just getting one room. My friend that is getting sleeved with me myself our sharing a bed. The r full size beds (maybe Queens but I think full) & and for 2 big girls that was not a good idea. I made sure that after surgery when we check back into the hotel that we have 2 rooms that connect. We also had a problem getting our 2 bottles of water a piece because we r sharing a room I guess. When we got to the room there was only one bottle of water so we called them for the other 3 because we were told that they would give us 2 bottles a day per sleever. They said that they could only give us 2 per room. I'm not complaining but I just wanted everybody to know in case u have a choice of 2 rooms. If 2 bottles of water is my only issue yay for me. I realized I made a mistake in my early post about who picked s up from the airport. It was Samuel not Abraham. Sorry Samuel lol. Well 2 more hours before I head to the hospital. I will post again when I can.

Best of luck

Sorry it took me so look to check in but yesterday was ruff and I was the 1st surgery of the day. We ran a little late because dr Garcia got a flat on the way to the hospital. Just to let everybody know,I didn't see any naked people and dr Luna had read my post and asked me about my neon toes. Lol I said u read are post and he said yes. He said he would not let any patients see me naked lol. U con't ask for better car. There has been just a little problem with the language barrier but not bad. I will post more later. Good luck and well wishes to the sleevers that r leaving soon.

Yay you're done! Feel better, rest, walk, sip, all that. Thanks so much for posting. That's cool about Dr Luna reading our posts, been watching him and Dr Garcia and the gang on You Tube so I feel like I know them already and now they know us!

Yay! That first night IS hard, huh?

Isn't dr. Luna such a cute baby face!? And r4ac really is good at what they do. I'm glad I didn't pick different coordinators.

I am home, and had the best nights sleep since this adventure began last Friday. Yawn

I hope the rest of your recovery and trip are uneventful. <3

Glad,all is well, now rest rest rest rest!
