I’m fine, thanks for asking. However, I assume you didn’t mean to ask me?

OMG I just realized we have the same surgeon. I'm having VSG on the 17th. How's your pre-op diet going? Were you the one they offered the date of the 10th from Merola's office because someone else cancelled?

[njgal 535]

Oh no... I’m 10/10

No I dont think I was the one. Lol. Great we have the same surgeon. I am very excited and have mixed emotions about this surgery. I bought my broths and sugar free Jello and popsicles so for when I am home next week after surgery I am ready to start this brand new Journey.

oh ok lol. Cause when Carline called me she said she just gave the 10th to someone else had she known I wanted to go sooner. I feel the same way. One day I'm excited and the next I'm nervous. But we've come this far and we're in the home stretch. did you have your pre-surgery testing yet? I have mine on the 11th. You'll be upstairs recuperating. Let's keep in touch.

Friday (Oct 6th) at 2:45pm right now in Eastern Australia.

Six days from now, I'll be in the recovery ward after my op.

A week from now I'll (hopefully) be pacing the floors of Lingard Private Hospital, Merewether, Australia.

Eight days from now, I will probably be discharged to go home ... fingers-crossed.

Three views of the map of where the hospital is follows.

My surgery is scheduled for 10/11. What seemed to take forever now seems like it is coming so fast. Thankfully I think I’ve gotten over most of my anxiety about the whole process and have just switched over to a let’s do this mentality. I’m sure that will change a little once I’m sitting in the hospital waiting for surgery though lol.
