It's finally almost that time. It's still hard to believe that after over 2 months of waiting, my translab surgery is only a day away! I'm soo relieved. I think the waiting's been the worst part (at least so far) of this whole thing. I'm nervous, but honestly I just want it to be over already! lol
I've decided to go get a massage and a haircut tomorrow and run a few errands--anything to keep me busy! For those of you who have been reading my blog, I'll post an entry tomorrow and then my dad will be taking over for the next few days until I'm up to it.
If there's still any last minute things I need to know please feel free to share them. And I want to thank all of you again for your support and encouragement over these last few months! Don't know what I would have done without you. ;D

Wishing you an uncomplicated, successful surgery tomorrow! You'll be in my prayers (and those of many others, I'm sure).

Manders,
I know you will do well. You have a very positive attitude. Massages are great and is what I plan to do if I can find a good place in LA. I try to get one at least every other month. My treat to myself. I thank your dad in advance for keeping us updated on your progress. I don't know about anyone else, but I am always looking for posts from those who are going through their treatments.
Positive thoughts being sent your way.

Yes, Mindy, waiting is definitely the hardest part! But you guys have been so great in making it less worrisome. Thanks for all the encouragement! I'm going to try my best to enjoy my "last day" and not think about tomorrow. :)

Hope everything goes well for you Manders. You're right, waiting seems to be the hardest part. My surgery is the 24th and I am so ancy I can't stand myself. It's not really nerves, but more like anticipation I suppose.
Anyway, I didn't mean to turn this to me. I believe we are all looking forward to hearing from you post-AN. Good luck, best wishes 8)

Hello everyone!! I know it's been ages since I've been able to get on but I had a second and wanted to just say a GINORMOUS THANK YOU to all of you! You're prayers and comments on my blog were amazing and I've read through each and everyone. They really helped those first few days when it was really rough. I will try to write more when I'm feeling up to it but I just had to get on and let you know that I have gotten all of your messages and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Continue to check my blog as I will be posting more updates soon. ;D

Welcome back and I look forward to your future posts as you recover. Good luck
