OMG FINALLY!!!!

Okay! Finally! I cant wait!! I am so excited!!! Yet then again so nervous too!!! Know what I am so excited about? My insurance company approved my appeal and I am scheduled to have my surgery on Tuesday, February 12th!!! It has been 8 months since I began the process. Never in my wildest dreams did I think, in the begining that is, that this journey would be quite this long. It has been an exciting journey full of ups and downs.

Today we are throwing my mom a surprise 50th birthday party. I will enjoy my final meal this evening with my family. I enjoyed a night out with the girls last night, yeah I enjoyed myself a little too much, LOL. Tomorrow morning I will begin my liquid diet consisting of all clear liquids. Then Monday morning I pre-op and start my bowel prep/cleanse. Then Tuesday morning I will have my surgery. I have been told there is a 1-2 night hospital stay and those are the worst days.

I know I wont regret this decision. I am ready to get myself healthy. I want to live so I can see my children grow and graduate from high school get married and have children of their own.

I will be sure to post when I get home from the hospital. Wish me luck and keep me in your prayers!

There are no words to express my gratitude to those of you who have supported me through this. Thank you so so much!!!
