The final countdown has begun. Clear liquids for today and tomorrow. And then on Wednesday, the surgery!
My head is spinning with all of the things I want to get done at work before I leave - all of the things I have to do after the surgery. So I decided just to take a DEEP BREATH - and get through it the way I have gotten through most of my life the last few years (after finding out about the heart failure) - one day at a time, sometimes one hour at a time. Do the task at hand - and don't think about the rest.
Having made the decision to be open and honest about all of this - I find myself explaining my surgery to a lot of different people. Explaining the differences between the gastric sleeve and the bypass or the band. Explaining my choice over other types of surgery. Explaining my choice of doctor and hospital. I've done my research - I've picked the best fit for me. I know that not everyone will agree - and that's OK.
Here we go!
