I’m Goin’ In!
In just 15 hours, I’ll be getting prepped for surgery. I went in this morning for pre-admission, pre-op questions and lab work. It was like being on a wild goose chase. (This was after I made breakfast, did the dishes, did laundry and vacuumed the house, but before I went for acupressure and a consultation with another doctor. After that I came home, watered plants, scooped dog poop and started packing for my hospital stay.) Now, I’ll have some soup and rest up for tomorrow’s adventure.
I am soooo ready for this surgery even though I’m scared to death. I’m tired of pain every day and constant cramping and oozing. I want this fibroid out of my body!! It’s like I’ve been letting an alien live inside my uterus. Not a nice alien either. I’m ready to have a nice healthy belly for Michael and I to put a new healthy baby into.
Margo at pre-op was great. We used to talk alot at the brew pub when her husband, Bob, was “biplane Bob” (Bob had a WWII-type double winged plane that he’d give island tours in. He even did scary looking dives and rolls! Now I think he works at the refinery.) and they had an Old English Sheepdog. It was nice to see a friendly face and she did a great job making me feel better about what would happen in the morning.
So now, time for some soup and tea and relaxation. I’m hoping to be home by Friday. And I’ll blog about my adventures at Juan F. Luis Hospital…….
