I have so much to be thankful for, but still, this isn't a particularly easy day, is it? I'm on day 6 of my liquid pre-op diet. The turkey is in the oven and it is smelling heavenly. In a few hours there will be food in virtually every corner of the kitchen, dining and living room. I am going to sit down to my squash bisque, pumpkin protein shake, orange jello and applesauce. And I shall be thankful that my long awaited surgery date is almost here, and that I am surrounded by people who love me. There are so many people who are much worse off than I am today just because I can't have pumpkin pie!

@@mum2dkl hopefully your surgery went well. Happy re-Birthday! I am basing this on your profile.

Day 12 of pre op diet today. Thanksgiving and Friday Saturday were the worst!
