Garran, myself and my dad came into Chicago the night before and stayed in a hotel just so we would not have to fight trafic and all of that wonderfulness! ;0)
I want to try and document as much of this as possible.
So this was yesterday morning before surgery. My final before pictures.
so this was the morning of Sept. 26 2012

i had to check in around 10:00. Then I spend about 2 hours in pre op just going over things, getting iv's in place, all of that fun stuff.
Of course I wanted a picture with my handsome hubby. He has been amazaing through all of this. He originally did not want me to get the surgery just because he is not crazy about me having any kind of surgery. But the more we were both educated, the more he became a little more comfortable. I know he was glad when it was over.
I just have to say, I love this man!
and me after my iv. it was actually not all that bad. Usually the IV is the worst part of the hospital for me, but not this time!
Here I am just waiting. I am so not good at waiting on things sometimes.
surgery went really well apparently. at least that is what i heard from garran and my dad. I was a little sore afterwards, but for te most part m recovery in the hospital had been really good.
my view this morning when they came in to take my vitals. very pretty.
and my cup!! I get to work on one of these each hour!! Pretty exciting I know!
again, thanks for all the love and support you guys have shown. it has made me feel so loved!

Yeah! So glad that things went well--and a shout-out to Garran for the updates. They were much appreciated. Wishing I could do something for you, but at least you will continue to be in my prayers. So excited for you Meghan!
I'm so glad things went well! We'll continue to keep you in our prayers as you make this new transition in your life! :) You will look back on this post in a year or so and be glad that you kept such a detailed account of what went on! And also to see how far you've come! I'm way excited for you! <3
Thanks Carie!! Thai is so sweet of you to say!
I will take prayers anytime!! Glad you guys got the updates!!
Meghan! I am so happy for you. I hope you are doing well. Now I really have to get your library card to you! geez what a slacker I am. I didn't even know you were having surgery until the other day! PLEASE let me know if there is anything at all I can do for you!! When you're feeling up to it I'd love to go with you guys to the Y. It's no fun for me working out alone...
I am so excited for you my friend and so glad it is going well so far. This is just the beginning of something great!
