It's time! On my way to the hospital right now! Surgery is in 2 hrs. I really hate hospitals but I am so excited it doesn't even matter. I've struggled through so much to get here that it's miracle this is even happening! To thank everyone for their stories I figured I would try share mine on this post. I'll keep you updated!

Good luck!

Good luck!

Try this little trick to relax you at the hospital. Every time they come in to take your routine BP......think deep in your mind of a pleasant relaxing place and try to see if you can lower your BP by mentally calming yourself.......It's kinda cool how easy it works......

You gonna do fine.......Good luck, See you on the loser's bench....

Thank you everyone for all the luck and prayers! My surgery went well and there were no leaks this morning. I was going to post yesterday after surgery but i kept dozing back to sleep because of the pain medication. I was very comfortable and i was with family in a private room. So today they took out my catheter and did a leak test and so far I have taken 3 strolls down the hall and the pain is tolerable. I think the worst thing was not being able to have anything to drink until after my leak test the today. So far so good.
