Yay! Surgery!

Today I got up the courage to call the Mayo Clinic. I think I have this misconception that you can only go there if you are really sick, dying even. That just isn't true and I am happy I called.
I asked a few questions, told them what I had, told them I wasn't satisfied with not being able to get an approximate surgery date.
I got all the answers I have been looking for from the woman making the appointment! She got me in for a consult on Monday the 19th and told me that after the surgeon sees me, if she agrees that I need surgery (no other roads to take at this point) that the surgery would probably be done the next day and that the O.R. has openings on that day.
I feel 500% better right now.
Wow, I still have so much to do. It is like getting ready for vacation. I need lists and supplies. I have to pack for the whole family. Ike will be going off to camp and Tom will be coming to jamaica with me...oh wait, Ike will be going to his auntie's house to have a long playdate with his two cousins and Tom will be coming with me, probably to live in a hospital dorm. Might as well be Jamaica.
