The pre-op nurse called me today to remind me of surgery (like I would forget???!) or maybe it was more to make sure I hadn't chickened out. So, I found out that I'm just going to be chillin in pre-op til they are ready to roll for surgery. I hope I can just fall asleep...I really am hoping to just sleep through most of Monday and Tuesday. Again, the nurse was so sweet. I hope they realize just how much that has helped to put me at ease about this upcoming experience.
More details being taken care of. I emailed my sister a big old list of stuff. I hope it wasn't overwhelming, I was lucid and just started writing a bunch of details. lol So, mom is going to stay with me Saturday night, during the surgery and most of the day on Tuesday. I'm incredibly thankful for her. One of my pastors is coming to pray over me Monday morning at the hospital. My roommate (who happens to be a nurse) will be around Tuesday and Thursday to assist. I can't tell you how much it helps to know people are going to be with me.
My chirpractor called today. She reassured me that surgery was the right choice for my case. She also told me that two women who had seen me come in for treatment and saw how much pain I was in, had been asking about me and let her know that they've been praying for me. I was blown away that people who don't me from Adam, put me on their prayer list. There have been many people praying for me during this time and especially over this surgery. I am so thankful for each and every person who's been praying for me. This has been a stressful time and I absolutely believe in the power of prayer!
Alrighty, it's been a day. I'm ready to be better! 2 more days til I'm cut open, fixed and in the healing kind of pain followed by physical therapy as the pain and discomfort that I've been stuck in for so long begins to dissolved day by day...Praise God relief is coming!
