August 22nd!

The hospital called me with my check-in time. 5:15! I live an hour away and will be dropping off my dog at the kennel so I have to leave at 4. Yay!

Also, I called the hospital and spoke with a nurse who let me know that the TWO bariatric rooms in the hospital don't have private showers. I have to go down the hall like in college. I don't think so. I did more calling and was told by the nurse manager for the hospital that all I have to do is ask for a non-bariatric room. I don't even need a bariatric room so that's FINE BY ME. I just can't believe that St. Joseph's, after MILLIONS in renovations, still has rooms without a private shower in them. ALSO, I am taking my shower chair from home because they DON'T HAVE THEM! Let me tell you, I was not able to hold my arms up and stand long enough for a shower two days after surgery.

I am packing my backpack now and cleaning like a crazy person. I've made enough Jello for a couple of days and I have tons of pudding, Protein, Water flavors and baby food. I'm so excited! This is freaking awesome!
