The absolute best of luck to you, Adam.

You'll be fabulous and it will be fabulous!

We'll all be thinking of you and see you on the other side :)

Thoughts and prayers coming your way! Good luck! :)

Good luck. I had mine yesterday. 1st day was tougher than I thought but so much better today. Keep your spirits up - it gets better quickly.

Awesome, I can't wait to be posting I am going - now just to wait for my surgery date - all I know is January! Can't get here soon enough - if they called and said to come today I would be there in a heart beat!

Wow~ just minutes away from your brand new you!! The very best of luck!!!

Good luck Adam, you'll do great! Just remember to walk as soon as you can and as much as you can to avoid the ghastly gas pains.

Thoughts are with you!

Good luck! I was a nervous wreck surgery day. My surgery went smoothly...my recovery was pretty easy. My hospital roommate situation not so much! My first roommate was an elderly woman who didn't speak English and pooped her bed...twice. Then she moved out and they gave me a lady who had nonstop around the clock visitors, some even spent the night. So those are my "funny" hospital stories. Haha not so funny but these people made me look forward to coming home and made my family look sane!

Thinking of you Adam!
