Surgery is Upon Me!

I went today for my consultation and so many things were not right!

For simplicity, I'll make a list...

1. When I told the nurse my weight, her response was "You don't look that heavy." What the heck does that mean?


2. I find out that I can't eat after 2pm on Sunday and I have to drink 12oz. of laxative to "deflate my intestines". Does that sound fun?


3. I have to shower Sunday night and Monday morning in antiseptic to prevent MRSA. Oh, and did I mention I can't wear deoderant for 2 days!!!


4. The nurse who drew my blood had a disorder that causes tremors where her hands shake violently....and of course she had one while the needle was in my vein!


5. I have to wear two hospital bracelets all weekend to verify that my identity and blood type do not change before Monday...seriously!?!? They will be a great accessory to my girls night out!

Of course, when I got home I greased them with lotion, had mom pinch my hands as small as we could get them, and took them off....hopefully they will go back on Monday!

On a brighter note....I am attaching Easter pictures. Aren't they cute!
