It Monday @ 1:17 am I am up just finding things to do, Tuesday @ 7am I check into the hospital for a sleeve surgery. Everything is going through my head in hope that I forget anything. I am blessed to have my husband who I have talked his head off. This has got me crazy and I am up just moving around . Today is all clear liquids and @ 12 midnight nothing by mouth. We will be taking off early tomorrow morning to make sure that I am there ahead of time. I have alright done all blood test and I also had to do a M.A.R test the hospital registration was done ahead already also. I was told what door to enter and on what floor to go. Surgery will start at nine am. Dr Clark will be doing my surgery, he is located in Newport News Va. I have loved working at this point with him. He is the type of doctor that you can reach at anytime, and have even told me and my husband that if we had any to please call him. He went through everything that would happen in surgery and how after I would have to walk. I was giving a large cup with a small metal ball inside also a shot cup with medicine cups, a bag that we can take to the hospital and some packs of different kinds of shakes to try. He made sure that we are ready, and told us that he will be there early to talk if we would have any other questions to ask. He told us that when people go home after surgery they have found that sleeping in the bed is very hard so he said that most find it better to sleep in a recliner. My husband went out and got me from Craig's list a recliner. My doctor also gave me three prescription to have fill so we won't have to wait on medication to be fill after the surgery. We have all the shakes and and vitamins along with my B-12. So you can say that I am really ready to start a new life. I am taking God with me, he has been there from the beginning. I am blessed to have a good support group, my husband, children and a few family members a some friends. I have learned that you can't tell everybody and everyone will not be very support. I thank God for groups like this also, I can meet others who understand and are going through the same thing. Please pray for me as I go through surgery on Tomorrow.
