Thanks, Teresa - yes, definitely sleeping in shifts now.  It will be good when I can get an entire 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep again! 

Debbi - packing socks and stuff...

[Pooter]

Debbi - Was thinking about ya all day and sending wishes of calm and tranquility as you approach your surgery date.  You're leading the charge for the rest of us who have procedures over the next couple of weeks, so we're right behind you cheering you on with well wishes and lots of prayers!  I'm sure a few have fly-by kisses to the forehead and cyber-huggles and the like.

Debbi -

Pooter's right.  I'm thinking good thoughts and sending calm wishes also - along with prayers for a swift recovery.

You have a great, upbeat attitude going into your surgery and it will prove very helpful to you.  I'm confident things will work out fine and I'm looking forward to the post op report from your husband or whoever else will be updating us.

Remember that lots of us have been there before you and know what you are going through.  We'll be anxiously waiting to welcome you back as a fellow "postie" 

All the best,

Jan

Hi All-

Well, this should be my last post until "the other side."  My hubby and parents and are getting ready to head into NYC this afternoon to get everyone settled.  My parents are staying at a friend's apartment on E. 50th, which is an easy walk to NYU, and Willie is staying at a hotel a few blocks from the hospital.  Looks like they want me there at about 6 AM tomorro and I shoudl go into surgery around 8:30 AM - so by this time tomorrow, I'll have a hole in my head!!   

Okay, making lots of jokes, but scared poopless (Phyl, is that okay?)  Just closing up my office this morning, taking care of a few last minute client communications, etc.  And trying to remember to breath...

Debbi - less than 24 hours to lift-off

poopless is fine, hun, especially when its out of ya due to less than 24 hrs.

Pirate socks are washed, April fresh and ready to rock and roll. Debbi, you are going to do great.... and can't wait to have you as "postie" status. you hang in there and know I'm cheering you on, sending wellness wishes and a few Queenie Beanie, the "toot" queen healing toots (my dog, the Pug, due to high fiber diet... gets pretty rough at home with her, if you know what I mean... )

Hang in there!

Melissa.......16 days and counting...I'm getting scared....

[Debbi]

And, one more thing (really, this is the last one...)  My husband, Willie, will post tomorrow or Thursday with an update so look for a post from WAB. 

Ahoy!

Good luck tomorrow wiith your surgery.    Part of the day is easy for you since you will be out of it and the wait is hard on the family.               You will be in my thoughts.                I am 12 days post op and good in some ways and tired in others. 
    Make sure and take a pic of yourself today and take your camera to the hospital so can get one there post op.

So it's finally here.  Remember back to when you couldn't even get this thing scheduled.  You'll do great, Debbi.  By this time tomorrow you'll be waking up in ICU minus a brainbooger saying "Waaa happened?"  My prayers are with you.

[ppearl214]

Phyl, Thanks so much for the Calendar.  What a nice idea!

denada... to me, the only true way to keep track of all the activities around here!   Esp. since many of us have dr's notes for "short term memory" issues... I milk that dr's note all the time... just don't tell the bloke!
