I have to start my clear liquid diet in the morning. Then around 3:00 pm I have to start taking these pills called VISICOL; it something new that is used instead of having to drink that awful stuff to clean out you colon and stuff. I have a fun day tomorrow but, hey, hopefully it will be worth it. My surgery is around 7 am Monday morning and I have to be at the hospital at 5 am. I am so scared for some reason this time. It seems more so than the last few I have had. I guess because he has told me more than any of my other doctors have told me. I know the surgery will take 4-6 hours. That scares me too; it seems like such a long time to be under. I guess I will get a good sleep on that day. Well, I have rambled enough. I will let you all know how things are going as I am able. I will be keeping you all in my prayers. Hugs to you all!
Love to all, Christy Mom to Mary Elizabeth (7 years-c/section); Hannah (5 years-VBAC) & Nicholas (almost 3 years- "Our Miracle baby"-U/R survivor-emerg. c/section) Wife to Joey-8 years
