Counting the days down

I went to my pre-op appointment. It’s amazing how real this is beginning to get for me, although it still seems so surreal. Everything went smooth and now I just have to worry about tying up loose ends. My surgery is set for Aug 28 at 7 am. I have to be there at 5:45 and for any of you that have kids and no family near to help out, asking a friend is a lot. Thankfully, my mother-in-law will be coming into town to help us out. For right now, since I still have a little over two weeks I am just trying not to obsess about it. I have total trust in my doctor so on that point I am comfortable. It’s just the “afterwards” that is making me anxious. I just don’t want my family to have to worry about the small things. It’s almost like I am nesting all over again. ha ha
