Re: Moving right along-Yikes!

Nan,

Congrats! I was approved also! They approved me yesterday, my pre-op stuff

is on March 24, 25 and June 6. We're bound to run into each other some day.

It really is getting real now as you said. Scary!

Hey Jenn, try breathing in one of these paper bags-- +puff+ puff+-- they say it

helps when your are hyperventilating-+puff=puff+ Whad'ya think? Have you

gotten a call from the psych for an appointment? They called me, but on my home

line-- my papers say plain as day to call me at work, but no one does it.. So I

will call them monday. I am trying to take this one step at a time. But I

keep getting visions of my poor discarded navel (and large attached blob of

fat)dumped in a stainless steel tray.... Sheesh. I will cope, I will cope, I

will cope.... Nan E.
