Surgery TOMORROW!

Can't believe 24 hours from now I'll be checking in at admissions!!! I'm excited and nervous!! The anticipation is the worst, lol! I'm just ready to get this over with and get back home to start my recovery! I started packing my hospital bag last night and reality seriously set in! This is really happening! I've only had surgery once, and I remember being incredibly nervous. I think I'll do better this time, but I have apologized to my husband in advance for being a nut tomorrow morning!! The plan is to drop my daughter off at school (which I pre warned my husband I will cry) then head to the hospital. Check in is 8am and surgery is scheduled for 10. I'm hoping if all goes well, I'll be out of the pacu and in a room by 2pm. My husband plans to be there the whole time, then pick my daughter up after school and bring her to visit. She's only 4, and knows only a little about what's going on. She knows mommy is having surgery and will stay the night at the hospital. Luckily, I worked nights as a nurse for a long time, so hopefully mommy staying the night in the hospital won't be to weird for her! Anyway, the plan is to stay busy today, and try to sleep tonight! I'm sure sleep won't come easily, lol! I'll try to post again tomorrow with an update. My surgery is at Parker Adventist Hospital in Parker, Colorado. It's a beautiful hospital, and all rooms are private, which I love!!!!!! Wish me luck!
