Surgery Day

We've found out that the surgery is scheduled for 2 pm today, altho they said it's also common to be called earlier. I would be grateful for that since I am VERY THIRSTY!! Haha. Jason is looking forward to Braveheart and/or Gladiator (Maximus! Maximus!) while I'm gone.

Amusing little twist today - they now have a psychologist who does the rounds. This makes sense to me, since I know this (actually all) surgery can be a huge stress, and a lot of people have a hard time adjusting. But of course I was laughing to myself; everyone is quite encouraging... but the psychologist did a good job of pointing out all the possible complications. I'd say he's a good means of his own job security!

We're in good spirits; I've heard nothing but positive news from the tests yesterday. The one real downer is that they insist on waking us up at 7 am! Why? Where are we going to go? Is there something we're late for? You'd think they would just let me sleep!!

So that's the scoop... thanks for checking in!
