To say I am excited would be an understatement! Thank you all for your comments.
I have started making lists.. what to take, what to buy for afterwards.. my head is spinning. I've phoned everyone who is 'in the know' so to speak, and got excited again and again each time I told someone. LOL
I have also started on the dreaded pre-op diet (low carb/low fat/low everything! going shopping for appropriate food tonight).
This forum truly is a godsend. I haven't been a daily poster, but definitely a daily visitor and have benefitted immensely from everyone's experience here.
:thankyou:
