Am so excited!!! I got the call today! I am approved! It felt like eternity since I suited the request and it took everything in me not to call every day to ask. My surgery date is December 17th first thing in the morning! And to make it even better I don't have to do a three week pre op diet it is only 2! Which means I get to eat Thanksgiving dinner! Any veterans have advice on what to bring to the hospital? Or how to prepare? Mentally and physically

I would prepare myself at least a wk before surgery to shrink your liver and emotionally prepare yourself to train your head hunger. All surgeons have a pre op diet before and it's strange to hear you say 2 days before.... You need good Protein and Vitamins to be able to have a good healing process etc.... In the meantime enjoy all your favorite food and the best advice 1 wk pre op. Glad to hear you had the acceptance! My surgery Is Dec 1 4 2013... Christmas will be grand this year despite the food lol

Congrats on your approval

Thank you so much you guys
