The date for my surgery is August 11th at 7:30am. I have to be there 2 hours before that so we will likely spend the night near the hospital so we don't have to leave here at 4am. I am a little nervous about the surgery but I know everything is in God's hands and I just need to give my fears to Him.
I have some appointments next week to meet with the high risk anaesthesiologist and to meet with the surgeon's nurse pracitioner to go over everything with the surgery, recovery time, etc.
They will try to do the surgery laproscopically(sp?) but if they can't, then they will have to cut me open. I believe the surgeon said depending on how they do the surgery, I will be in the hospital 2-5 days. Of course recovery time will depend on how they end up doing the surgery as well.
The doctors are still adjusting my medications to make sure things will go smoothly as possible during surgery. I have not noticed any side effects of them changing my meds. My pulse has been higher than normal but other than that, I have been feeling pretty good.
May God Bless you today,
Jodi
I will be praying for your surgery. It will go great!
