Packing for the hospital, is like going on vacation. You need to make sure the pets are set, the kids are set, the laundry is done, their are list of who to call and what needs to be done...Lists of numbers, places, and who to call after the "big event". I am not really scared about the surgery, I am more scared of how long I have had cancer, months, several months, years?????? Will I have a stage 1(i hope, i hope)What will they find? I will not miss my Uterus, even though it did produce 3 wonderful kids, though 5 grew in my heart, I will not miss the monthly visits.....I am not looking forward to slowing down, but I think God wants that to happen. I am not looking forward to the hospital food,(so those of you who come to visit PLEASE smuggle some in!!!) I AM looking fowrard to healing, God's miracle in my life, the love and support of my family and friends. Meals served in bed......and some peace and quiet ( I love you kids, but I really am in need of some ME time...) Ok I am racked, ready to go, taking the kids tonight to the places of comfort for them, will have a nice quiet dinner with Frank, and then tommorrow the event begins.........
