It's getting close. I really am ready. Poor DH. He got really stressed out when I asked to change rooms. He had unpacked everything that he needed for his stay, but I just couldn't stand such a nasty room. Oh, plus there was no internet!!!
Tonight's project was to shower with some special antiseptic soap and scrub my incision spots for 3 minutes. Will be repeating this at 5am tomorrow. Still pretty surreal. But by tomorrow night at this time I should be out of surgery!!! A friend who had this surgery a few months ago didn't get out until after 11pm (7:30am - 11pm), so DH is prepared for a long day. At least he has a much nicer room WITH internet.
DH has started blogging. I can't wait to read his posts when I wake up. I thought I would be much more nervous than I am. Last night talking with my friend who did this 8 years ago really helped. Again, thanks to all my friends who have been soooooooo supportive throughout this journey.
It's time to go spend some time with DH. He really has a tough job right now. It's hard to imagine the wait he has to endure, then a long recovery period. He truly is a godsend.

Darn- I wrote you something in the comments last night but it looks like it didn't post and now you're probably on your way into surgery. Anyway, just letting you know that we'll be thinking of you today and praying for you, your family, the docs, and everyone who will be taking care of you this week. We look forward to coming to see you when you're ready for visitors. Let the healing begin! Christy
