Well... Tomorrow's the big day!!!
I am going into surgery at 12:30, and after about 5 hours, things should be done. The plan is to get the surgery done laparoscopically. I am hoping that the game plan does not change and that all goes smoothly.
I hope to keep blogging, and hopefully, people can give me advice and words of wisdom!!!

I hope it goes well and smoothly for you.
Make sure before the surgeon uses the anesthetic, point your finger at him and say, "You better do a good job!"
That'll put him under some pressure!

If you've had a colostomy or ileostomy, you may experience some common food-related issues.
The good news is that you can avoid them with some small changes in your diet.

Thanks so much for the wishes!!! First, I need to make sure he finds the right vein... they tend to 'run and hide'...
I'll be back on here for sure once I'm back at home!!!
