Tomorrow is the day for several of us!

July 8th!! I can't believe it is here. We are cleaning and cleaning and cleaning the house for a sterile arrival back home! Trying to forget that ill be sleeved by now tomorrow! If I think abiut it too long I might cry. Scared and excited! I worry abiut my girls so much. I know the chances of me dying are slim but they are there. I know my chances of dying witjout the surgery are absolute. I almost died after having my eight year old. I developed congestive heart failure. The thought of her without a mommy was traumatic. My second daughter is adopted from China. I just love them so much and hate to put my life at risk. But in this case it is necessary. Much prayers for all going under tomorrow!

Just think, what a wonderful gift you are giving them both in a new, healthier mommy! I am so excited that I'm sitting here in awe looking at my suitcase after I started this process a long 8 months ago. It's finally here! Wow....

I share the same feelings my surgery is at 11:30 tomorrow. Im praying for myself and all sleevers to have safe surgeries and fast recoveries.

cleaning the house for a sterile arrival back home

sterile arrival.???.........are you bringing a baby home??? ;)

kindof i guess...........

a new little baby tummy ;)

as far as you having feelings/fear of death???

you would have to stay inside 24/7 to make sure nothing happened to you "out there" ^_^

all surgeries have complications :angry:

things should/hopefully go without a hitch during and after WLS

"from my lips to Gods ears!!!"

you'll be holding and loving those girls very soon

as OP said - the kids and you will be so much happier, that you have regained your health, and are able to be with them in better health

good luck to you tomorrow

don't be too nervous during surgery

suggestion: how about closing your pretty eyes and taking a nap while the docs do their thing!! :lol:

speedy recovery

you are on your way to a healthier, happier, longer life with the sleeve!!!!

I share your feelings. I will be going into surgery at 8 am in the morning. All my fellow July 8 sleevers will be in my prayers tonight! God Bless! Looking forward to this new journey!

Hey guys feeling anxious about tomorrow too! Anyone doing a colonoscopy prep?

Best wishes to you all! See you on the sleeved side :)

I feel like everyone in here excited and nervous. I can't believe tomorrow is our day, finally. All I have to do is finish pack which is very light but tomorrow in the name of jesus will go very well for all of us. Prayer is the key !!

Today is the day!! At the hospital now, surgery scheduled for 8 am! Please keep me in your prayers!

Congrats and good luck to everyone being sleeved today! Good thoughts coming your way!
