Today is the Day!!! See on the other side!
« on: April 02, 2010, 03:02:10 am »
Good Morning all my AN buddies.  So, I can't sleep, if you can't tell by my time stamp, it's 4:00 a.m.  I've been awake since 3:00 and finally decided it was just time to get up and start the day.

My surgery will be at 7:30 this morning at Methodist Hospital here in Omaha.  I am having retrosigmoid with Dr. Doug Long and Gary Moore.  I know I am in good hands!

If my husband, Bill makes a post on here and it's on the wrong spot, can someone help him out?  He's never been on here before, but knows all about all of you.  He reads over my shoulder the minute I get on here.  He too, wants to thank all of you for your support through all of this.

Wish my luck today and I will see you on the other side, as a "POSTIE"

Hope your recovery is going well. My surgery was 7 days ago. My balance is the biggest issue. No facial weakness. I feel very fatigued, but count my blessings that this was benign!
