The Doctors and the hospital do this on a regular basis and all you need to do is show up on time and follow thru with your decision.

Good luck on Wednesday and we look forward to seeing around post op for the updates on your progress.

I was watching videos of live surgeries getting an idea of what my surgeon would be doing. When I had her put the band in back in 2011, I asked if she could get me photos of my insides... she looked at me like I had 12 heads. I see my outside all the time, I've never seen my actual insides, I told her.

Still didn't get my photos LOL.

@Matt Z reading your story, I had memories of a Seinfeld episode when Jerry and Kramer were watching surgery above the patient and Kramer offered a junior mint to Jerry and it ended up in the patient. :lol:

Matt - my advice is never encourage a surgeon to deviate from their usual flow in the operating room. You want your surgery to be as brainless/automatic as possible! :)
