Surgery tomorrow!

Tomorrows the big day! I'm excited but also nervous and I keep thinking I'm gonna chicken out at the last minute! The only reason I'm nervous is ive never had any kind of surgery. But my fiancé is going with me and he's had four surgeries so he's really calm about it! Anyways if anyone has any last minute advice I'd appreciate it!

Thanks all! I appreciate it! So glad I found this site. The support is amazing!

Just breathe.....YOU GOT THIS! I'm so excited for YOU!

Mine is today too -- I'm nervous but I'm focusing my nervous energy on tiny things like what if the hospital loses my glasses? What if they forget to call my family? and so on. No chance of backing out!

I'm so happy for you. If you're well enough to post, you must be doing great. I made my decision today to have the surgery in Mexico. I'm planning on Aug 2nd. Keep posting on your progress. I'll be looking forward to hearing good news.
