    Hi Sue, not sure if it is the 15th where you are yet or not. Just wanted to let you know, I will be thinking of you tomorrow and wish you a successful surgery and recovery. Take care.

    I think she goes in on Tuesday…

    Sue, I would also like to wish you the best with your upcoming TT.

    I really didn’t find it so bad – just took longer to recover than I expected – gotta love getting older! I was glad to get home since I didn’t sleep at all in the hospital…

    My suggestions – make sure you have a comfortable place to sleep when you get home (we don’t have a recliner so I set up the couch in the kids playroom – after I got home – with lots of pillows so I could sleep on my back), Popsicles, ginger-ale, crackers, your post-TT meds, and lots of help:)

    I had all sorts of dressings for my incision, but the doctor sent me home with steri-strips and had me keep them on until I see him tomorrow.

    Will be thinking of you!

    Awwwwwww, you guys are the best – thank you!!!!! Can’t believe you remembered that my TT is this Tuesday…. jeez, even some of my family members don’t remember that it’s in two days (can choose your friends but not your family, right?) :)

    My husband just commented that I must be getting pretty nervous and I had to honestly say “No”. As I explained, I don’t have anything to be nervous about. I’m going to one of the best hospitals in the country (Yale) and it’s not like I have to do anything….. I’m just going to go to sleep, wake up, and be pampered. :) I would normally fear being sick to my stomach and dizzy when I wake up but I know they can give you something for that so no problem there.

    There probably is a part of me somewhere inside that must be nervous but I guess I’m so good at hiding it that even I don’t realize it’s there.

    I think I am more than ready…. bring it on!

    You guys are the best. I’ll probably start a journal on here tomorrow and will try to update it very often, at least in the beginning.

    Love you guys.
    Sue

    Hi Sue, you sound very prepared for your TT! Pretty soon you will be a member of the TT club! Best to you, and you are getting closer and closer to the pampered part! Best to you.

    As far as the nausea goes, I was really worried since I had horrible nausea and trouble with general when I had my breast lift/reduction. I talked to the anesthesiologist about it, she did her “magic”, and I felt great when I came out of it! It really is amazing what they can do now…just be sure to voice any concerns ahead of time:)

    Geez, you guys….. I’m all teared up and choked up…… what a wonderful bunch of people on this forum!

    Can I blame today’s tears on the hormones even though surgery isn’t until tomorrow? :)

    Love you guys.
    Off to start a journal.
