WOW thats excellent news! I know how you feel I was sitting at home watching the tennis when I got the phone call to say there had been a cancellation, if wanted to take it so I said yes naturally. Pre op assessment was on the 30/11/11 all went well. Operation on 15/12/11. On pre op diet good so far. Honest its never out of my head now.
This after a year on the list so I understand how you are feeling. good luck! hope all goes well.
