Well… after watching the calendar days count down over the past month, it is finally here.
In a little over 12 hours I’ll be in surgery…. I wish I could say I’m feeling stoic and confident, but honestly, anxiety is pretty high on the scale right now…
In the end though, it is good to be moving forward, one step closer to answers…
Everyone keeps asking for specifics, times/hospital stay etc, so I thought I’d list it out for everyone:
6:30 am Check In at the Hospital, for an 8:30 am surgery. They say my surgery will be at least three hours, and I should be staying just one night so I’ll be home safe and sound (minus one thyroid) sometime on Thursday….
That’s all I have really, there are still unknowns, and also it could be a longer procedure/stay depending on what they find/how I do… so really for now, its just more of the good old "wait and see." BUT the good news is the waiting, at least this portion of the waiting, is almost over…
Just wanted to check in before the big day. Keep us in your prayers tomorrow, will update as soon as I can (if you are anxious to hear you can watch my Facebook status, I’ll try to update there as soon as I can).
Thank you again everyone so much for all your love and support!
