I forgot to add the most important part..

Dr. Heap said that after 6 weeks of the surgery. John and I can get pregnant. That is the most wonderful news I have also heard in a long time. He said he encourages it because the baby will actually help eat the fat. Weird but ok. LOL I can also start swimming just 2 weeks after surgery. Its hope that I will feel a lot better by then. I am so excited I can hardly stand it. Only 26 days till surgery! Yahoo!

My pre-op is on May 24th starting at 9:45am. I first go to KGH for blood work and EKG. Then I go back to Dr. Heaps office in Richland and do my pre-op apt with him. Then I go back to hospital to register and get all the rest done that I need to before surgery. Then I wont have to do anything until the day before surgery, I heard that I have to go on clear liquids to help the surgery go smoother. Otherwise surgery is at 7:30am on May 27th. I have to be there at 6am for prep.

(Also the reason for the EKG is that Dr. Heap has had one mortality in 30 years, it wasnt due to his surgery, 5 days after surgery the ladys had problems with her heart and died. So he does the EKG so that wont happen again. PHEWWW huh)
