2 Days to go!

Well, I saw my surgeon today for pre op. All my labs and such were great. I signed all my consents and am a little nervous because according to my surgeon, I had to sign for my gastric bypass AND gastric sleeve. He said because I've had a couple previous surgeries there could be scaring that may make the bypass to hard to do, so he said if he can't do the bypass he will do the sleeve in its place. UGH! Now I'm worrying that I won't get my bypass.

My luck lately has sucked. I went on a trip with my daughters while they were visiting me. On our way to a tour of Austin, Texas, I didn't see a dip in the sidewalk and fell. Long story short, I broke my right foot on 6/8/17. I saw an orthopedic doctor and was told I will most likely have to have surgery to fix it. SMH!

I really hope that I can get my bypass surgery and not a sleeve. I've had severe GERD for years and don't want it to get worse.

My surgery is Wednesday and I could use some good luck and prayers for the bypass to be a go.

Thanks for hearing me out. I'll appreciate any and all good vibes!
