Today is the day!

My surgery day is here. I slept fine, but woke up early but I'm treating my day as I normally would before the surgery (Walking the dog at ex time, watching tv until I normally would get ready for work, going to take my daughter to school then.... make sure I'm packed for my stay). I'm a ball of emotions- excited to start this part of my journey, anxious as my insides will be rearranged. I'm nauseous, literally, with nerves. I tried a sip of Water, didn't help. I can have Clear liquids until 8am.

But I am thankful today is the day! No doubt. I feel blessed for this opportunity and I've worked hard to get where I am. Think of me today, I'll try to post this evening. My surgery is at 11:45am.
