One Day MORE!

Ok. My last post before and I'm trying to think of what I will want to know about what I thought before.  The surgery is scheduled for 12:30pm tomorrow and I have to be there for 10:30am - so I'm figuring leaving around 9:30am.  I'm staying home (in my home) tonight and will go to "the old folks home" tomorrow morning.  I'm hoping that by the weekend I can return back here.  My intention is to take advantage of any pain meds the first few days and then wean off so that I can safely drive myself home. All I'll really need at that point is to be able to get to dunkin donuts for coffee LOL.

I feel good about support from friends and family. Those that matter are making a difference and what more could I want? It truly is nice to know that people care. There's a huge difference in thinking people care vs. feeling that.  I'm mostly concerned about the financial part of all this - but so far I've been able to catch up on everything. Now it's just a matter of not falling behind.  

In less than 30 minutes I must stop everything from entering my mouth - so I'm drinking my last cup of coffee.  I'm not all that worried about the food part - it's the coffee part.  

On the flip side, I do wonder if I'll experience hormonal differences like hot flashes or other issues. I realize there's no way to know till it happens.  I never asked about whether or not I'll need HRT - but will do so if that's what is suggested. With the history of bone issues, it may not be a bad idea.  Look here! for all the answers!

Anyway, next post will be from ovary free me!
See you on the flip side. And just to confirm my wishes conveyed in the email to my family:
Obviously I have every intention of being fine afterwards - however,, I wish to be an organ donor (and I'm registered as such), then cremated and if I am given any sort of religious ceremony I will come back and do something really loud to express my upsetfulness.  Oh and the only thing I'm avid about is not being avid about anything.
