It's so exciting! I'm feeling really bad that I will be in the hospital for my son's 17th Birthday. I've got to figure out a way to feel better about it.

Great to hear and read the pre and post op discussions. I am set to have my surgery at Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington. Nervous but excited. Had a bad experience with the North Shore Physician group but now back on track. Please continue to share your stories and they ease the anxiety. Excited about June 25
