Hi,

Well I acn't believe that tomorrow is the day. This time tomorrow I won't be drinking my morning cuppa like I am now but being admitted to hospital for my second soinal fusion! AAAARRRGGGHH!

I have spent most of the past five weeks, since deciding to do it, talking myself in and out of it. I still feel like it is happening to someone else.

Anyway, if any of you are awake tomorrow morning could you sit in my pocket and help me go through with it please? I know I need to do it, and you can't make an omelette without breaking eggs, but I am scared and not convinced I will do it for real! :roll:

I will post on here as soon as I can post op, I have promised the bookclub to post on Thursday so I will give it a go then.
Thank you!

Helen

    Count me in. (Just don't think about it today :wink: Distraction is everything.)
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    God luck, nothing ventured nothing gained and I am sure all will be well. Don't rush to get back - your health comes first but it will be lovely to hear from you if you can post. Take care. DD

    Wow! Thank you all, I wonder if I should get bigger pockets? Especially with LV and her two lung-squashers onboard!

    I have distracted myself brilliantly today - swam a mile this am and walked for ages this afternoon. I thought I might as well completely finish myself off before the enforced rest period! Also, I want to be crawling through the door tomorrow else I am still not convinced I will go!

    Anyway, see you all in the morning and thanks for all the support!

    Thanks again! I am up and ready and feeling nervous, thirsty and - of course - not as bad as normal! Must be the adrenaline! See you on the other side!

    Thinking of you my sweet. Hope it goes OK. It will of course but I understand the nerves and adrenaline. I'll be in the pocket (probably eating things as I seem to do lots of that) but you will be in my thoughts all day.
    Big and gentle hugs, Love LV xx

    I a m a bit on the late side, but I shall be in your pocket tomorrow morning. I shall be thinking of you and sending you some hugs of comfort.

    You've made the right decision. It will all be over tomorrow afternoon. And you will be on the road to recovery.
