10 days and counting to SRS

It’s getting so close now, and of course I worry that surgeries will be delayed again if Covid gets worse, but so far things are still marching along and my scheduled SRS is 10 days away. Of course it will be awful if it gets delayed but I’m a big girl, I’ll just figure out what to focus on next and do what needs to be done... I’ve been going back to school so I will just shift my focus towards my schoolwork and see if I could complete the practicum portion before surgery? Otherwise I’m just going to Work my tail off and get everything ready, eight days from now I have to start the bowl prep process and a clear liquid diet before surgery...

How exciting, @jae bear!  It was only back in March that I was in the same position, so I remember the feeling well.  It will be a whirlwind of activity, but enjoy every minute of it.  I wish you an excellent outcome!

@Jae Bear - I agree with Kathy, it is a whirlwind, and time moves at different rhythm then. My fingers are crossed for you, that circumstances will be kind.

 

Best

You are heading into the eye of the storm for sure.  It will go fast though, and then the healing journey will begin.

Oh  Jackie, I remember when you first came on board here!  Quite a different person now, confident and beautiful!  I'm happy that you've come to this point and know it will go fine.

Well, just a few more days now, I had my last day at work yesterday and I’m just kind of lying around cleaning up a bit... I have to start drinking the bowel prep gallon of horrors tomorrow, not looking forward to it but I’m sure I’ll do just fine. I’ll make the occasional post here as I am recovering, let you girls know how I’m doing- I’m glad the day is finally coming, sometimes I’m excited about it sometimes I’m relieved, but mostly I’m glad I got this far and things all seem to of worked out just fine!

Good luck! Especially with the bowel prep. That was brutal.

Good luck, @jae bear

 

I didn't find the bowel prep that bad.  On the other hand, bringing my guts back online afterwards was brutal.  I had enough gas to fill the Goodyear blimp!

All my best to you dear Jackie!  As to the prep, we all must go through the tough time to get to the good ones.  I'll be in touch.

Hugs, Jani

Drink it up lass it all comes out fine in the end!!  Do be sure your doctor lets them give you Gas-X for the first couple of days but you will do fine.

The bowel prep and the fasting is kinda brutal in it's own way, then you can look forward to that first meal on the other side, sure tastes great !

 

Best wishes

Thank you girls for all the really kind and hilarious comments, a few of those I laughed out loud so hard I think it shook the walls! I’m sure I’ll get through it just fine, I’ve already mixed up the jug of horribleness and have everything ready for tomorrow morning. Not my first rodeo so I’ll just “go with the flow”!

Hugs to you all!

Jackie

      Good morning   @Ashley0616. So glad it wasn’t worse.  I did something similar when I was maybe 8. I was playing outside barefoot and stepped on a piece of broken glass. My mother zoomed into action when I told her.     @awkward-yet-sweet welcome back to the working world. Mental work is just as tiring as physical but both feel good.  It’s a different kind of tired when you wake up.   @Birdie what a beautiful young woman you were.   i made a pot since it’s Sunday. Last time for a while I’ll be grinding beans.  Somehow I messed up and bought already ground the last time.  I know I was in a bit of a rush at the time.  That just doesn’t pay.  Slow down and take the time to read the package.     at least we can use this up making single cups too.  We have a replacement for the pod holder that allows you to use ground coffee or tea leaves. I suppose herbs could be used if that’s your thing but it’s never been this girl’s.  (Like I said too conservative and goody two shoes)   Well here I sit in my sleep sweatshirt from Buc-ee’s while the dog is signaling she would like to go out.   i suppose I should finish up and get ready for the day.  And a nice one it will be. Mostly sunny high of 76.  I should go sit by the pool this afternoon.   Willow

      Tension is not a well-understood psychological state. It can be both positive and negative, much like stress itself. A 2015 research paper on the theoretical framework of tension notes it's an anticipatory emotional state which tends to be associated with: conflict.

      I'd love to have a dinner party with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Voltaire, and Ayn Rand.  Would definitely be an interesting time.

      In the forward I learn that transgenderism is bad, and somewhere else that transgender ideology is bad.  I have not yet read a definition of either in the document.  I assume they are the same.  I know Focus on a Family has a definition of transgenderism on their website, or did, but I am not sure this is the same as that.  I might agree that transgenderism is bad if they use a definition I condemn (e.g. transgenderism means you always pour ketchup in your shoes before you put them on - I could not agree to that).  Is someone who believes in transgenderism, whatever it is, a transgenderist? I never see that term.  There may be other definitions out there, but I don't think there is an Official Definition that we all agree to.

      Crazy fact, was gonna go to the school where this went down at before I moved, have a lot of friends there. I know at least one of my friends met the guy on one occasion, not knowing who it was.

      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>
