Just looking for someone that I can share ups and downs with along the way. Anyone out there getting sleeved on or around Oct 31st?

I'm getting sleeved on October 22nd! I'll be your sleeve buddy.

Yay! I am so excited for you. My pre op appointment is on the 22nd.

It is exciting and nerve racking, too! Where are you having yours done? I'll try to log in tomorrow afternoon and get you updated on how things are going.

I am having surgery in Portland OR, I am starting to freak out because I have a cold that I cannot seem to get rid of. I am afraid that I will go in tomorrow and they are going to say nope. Do you have support there? People coming to the hospital with you?

My youngest son, who is 17, is taking me and staying until his oldest brother gets there. I have 4 boys, ages 23, 20, 19 and 17. My 20 year old was just admitted to the hospital this morning for an ongoing blood disorder called ITP. he is really upset he can't go with me. My husband will be there later in the day. I'm in Lansdale, PA. It's about 30 minutes outside of Philly.

I think that since you are scheduled for the 31st, you should be ok. It seems like that is enough time to get over a small cold.

I'm getting more excited as the hours go by but also slightly more anxious. Oh and by the way, my name is Melissa Lordi-Liwen. I'm on Facebook too if you are on there and want to add me.

Do you have anyone going with you for support?

I am going to PM you!
