    Tomorrow I'll be in surgery! Only 52 days from start of the process to surgery. I'm taking that as good omen that this is meant to be! I'm hoping to update when up to it from my shiny new IPad!

    I am also having surgery tomorrow at 1pm... getting nervous!

    I'm now 3 days post op and the nausea is terrible. The pain has subsided, but I have terrible cramping from diarrhea and nausea. Thankfully, I seemed to have stopped throwing up. So far, not the easy recovery I had prayed for. I pray all of you have a better time of it. My sister had this 6 years ago and none of the problems I'm having. Praying this gets better soon.
