✍️ My surgery is tomorrow too. I just had to wash off all the antiseptic wipes because I forgot no shaving 24 hr rule and shaved in the shower tonight! :( I was itching all over. I am wide awake and have to be at the hospital for 5:30 am HST. No sleep for me tonight either I guess. Prayers for all of us!

You got this!!!

Praying for you Victoria! No more GERD, God willing! Can't wait to hear from you.

Thanks, Nancy. Today has been pretty good over all. I’m in some pin but nothing crazy. I haven’t had to take any pain meds.
Knew you were Strong and Comitted, proud of You Yesterday, proud of You Today! But if you do feel the need later, don't just tough it out, take SOMETHING, you don't have to be a Strong Viking when a Surgical Bulldozer just rolled over YOU! And I forecast a Super and Superior Recovery for it all!❤?❤

Thanks! I’m headed home. I took a little bit of meds last night to help me sleep. I’ve been up walking this morning and feel good...just sore but not bad.
