Huge Winter Storm Predicted Same Day As Sx

I'm trying not to freak out. But there is a huge winter storm predicted for Monday into Tuesday. And my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday morning! I know that I will get there. I live 20 minutes from the hospital and I'll leave an hour or more early to get there. But I am so worried that the hospital or the surgeon may cancel. I plan on calling my surgeon's office tomorrow just to see if they ever cancel due to inclement weather. And when the hospital calls me with my admission time I will ask them the same thing. I realize that it will not be the complete end of the world if it gets rescheduled, but I have already waited so long, have my heart completely set, I am finally truly ready and committed to weight loss. I have the days requested and approved to be off from my job, as do my boyfriend and mother. So not only would a cancelation be very upsetting, but myself and my family would have to try to get different days off and whatnot. By no means would I want anyone risking their life to get there! I am just wondering if anyone had heard of surgeries getting canceled due to snow?..

Thank you!

Well thank you everyone for all of the well wishing! But unfortunately I got the call today that the hospital is canceling all of the surgeries tomorrow. So it wasn't even up to my doctor. I am rescheduled for next Tuesday now. One more grumpy week of pre op diet. In the long run I know it won't make a difference, but I kinda feel like stomping my feet.

Oh my gosh! I don't know what just happened but that posted like 10 times! Whoops! It's not my day. My iPhone ACTUALLY fell into a toilet today! And now it's not behaving itself. Ugh. Mercury is in retrograde and it's messing with me. Anyway...

Light and love to rest you and good luck everybody!
