\My surgery is scheduled for the 28th and I held off till the last moment to get my check ... I was nervous about making the plane reservations but knew I COULD cancel them if I wanted to , but knew the die was cast once the certified check was written....
Now I am on my preop diet...
Once I had made the decision to forge ahead and have the surgey and booked my date I told 2 people at work.. one who is a close friend and later a person who was banded 2 years ago..
I didn't really want to tell her( wasn't sure she would keep my secret till I was ready to tell people) but needed lots of questions answered.
Yesterday I finally broke down and told a few more of my co workers.. Some are happy for me some aren't ... but it is relly MY decision and that's the final word on it..
I am getting anxiously nervous, not about the surgery itself but about the long journey afterwards...
WHen people ask me where I am having hte surgery I tell them....I find it very difficult to lie or make up stories cuz I can't remember what I said next time someone asks me again.
So I am now on my countdown 5 days and a wake up till I get on the plane ..
