Quick post

Just wanted to let you all know how much you are appreciated! All of your kind words, positive energy, prayers, flowers, food, treats, visits, calls, harassments, messages, emails - THANK YOU!! It really does make a difference - I am encouraged every day by all of you.

I have my post-op tomorrow in the morning with Dr. Smith. I'll let you know how it goes.

I'm trying not too get too anxious about this next step, but I have to be honest, it's freaking me out! I don't think it's going to be fun - we got a little info about it from my nurse during my last stay. I'll be on the same floor - surgical oncology - so she was sharing about my recovery after the DIEP surgery. Here's a good laugh for those of you that know me well - my room will have the temp. set at 80 for the 1st 24 hours!!!! I know, right???!! It's something about the heat and being flushed which causes the capillaries and vessels to flow very well. I'll give you more details about my surgery after my pre-op on Thursday.

much love,

monique
