Tomorrow is the big day and I think I am starting to panic. I cant even imagine what tomorrow is going to be like. I have to be there at 7:30 am. THATS 12 HOURS FROM NOW!! I really hope everything goes smoothly and the pain isnt as bad as my head is making it out to be. I am such a big baby lol. But at least I know and admit it. I know I can do this!! I have been getting phone calls, visits, and messages today that have made me feel very loved and thought of :) And thanks to everyone on here that have made me feel a bit more comfortable and cared about :)
I am trying to work on the house but my brain is so scattered that I cant focus very well. I got clothes washed and towels folded and random little things that dont amount to much lol I am running on excess nervous energy. Its so hard to blieve that tomorrow is the begining of a whole new life. I had been doing all this stuff for the end result (surgery) And now that its here I am freaking out. I just feel like I am floating or its dreamlike. All this time I thought for sure since I wanted it so bad that there is no way it could happen. Around every corner I was expecting something to crush the dream. But tomorrow is the day and IT IS REALLY HAPPENING! I am feeling very emotional about this. WHEW!!!
I know this blog is a bunch of randomness but like I said I am just trying to release stuff from my head so maybe I can focus. And I keep getting interupted by people calling and I cant even focus on what they are saying. lol Ok I am going to quit before the men in white coats come to take me away HA HA
Take a deep breath. Know that half of your nervousness is actually excitement of your new life to come. Good luck tomorrow, roll with the punches and wake up on the other side. Peace be the journey.
ReplyDeleteWoot! Well tickle me pink...so glad you showed up today and I found you the day before banding!!! HOW EXCITING...very normal to feel nervous...I could hardly sleep, but they give you good drugs for that! Take a deep breath when they roll you in and remember you've been working a long time for this (you'll be asleep before you know it)! Remember the post-op mantra 'sip, sip, sip, and walk, walk, walk!' Best wishes tomorrow...can't wait to follow your experiences! OK, now I'm the one babbling...too exciting!((hugs)) -BG
ReplyDeleteYou are going to be GREAT! GOOD LUCK!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!! Nerves are normal and expected. They seem to hit most of us really hard the night before. Best thing tomorrow is rest, water, Gax-X, and more rest!
ReplyDeleteGood luck....I remember feeling surreal but found the pain ok. Fingers crossed it is the same for you!!!
ReplyDeleteYou will be fine!!! Just Breath....! I was like this too the day before, I made sure all the laundry was done, etc.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping that your Surgery is as easy as mine was and your recovery is quick and easy too!!
Let us know how it went when you can. Remember to just relax, it will go fast and be over before you even realize it!
I'm soo0o0o0 excited for you!!! Don't worry, the hard part will be over before you know it!
ReplyDelete:-) Good Luck!!
ReplyDeleteLot of hugs to you as you pass through to the other side. I'm now the day after surgery and feeling pretty damn good. Even survived the 4 hour drive home just hours after surgery (my choice). Take the pain killers every few hours at first and you will feel tons better. It is a life-changing event and you made the right decision. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!! It has been nearly two months since my surgery and I can hardly remember anything about my surgery day except being excited and having such HUGE relief that I finally got banded and was on my way!!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about you. Hope you are doing well. Can you believe it's over? Well, actually it's just beginning. :)
