April 28th 2008:
This morning I wrote the post below thinking I was having Laproscopic surgery, easy in out, done. Unfortunately, I am now having as my surgeon said “Major surgery that has a high success rate.” I also must wait yet another week because I will be needing a series of pre-op tests this week to prepare for the main event. These include procedures that require local anesthetic and are “generally very uncomfortable.” Once those are done I am expected to be in the hospital for FOUR days at the very least.
