Guest guest Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Thanks for all the advice-- I'm begining to think, from the feedback I've been getting, that I'm just going to have to cross the race off my calender and do it next year. Too bad, but its not worth the risk and possible agony, as it sounds. Its really great to hear about others' experiences! Thanks, anae3333 and the rest! This site is a godsend. I feel like I've learned so much more by reading all the " chatter " than I could have from just the questions I would have asked my doctor. Thanks again! My surgery is on Friday, so wish me luck, if I don't post again! And best of luck to everyone going in-- I want to hear about your experiences!

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Jessie, Best of luck on the surgery this Friday! As for the race, don't cross it off your calendar completely. Just go as a specatator and you'll probably appreciate your accomplishment that much more next year! Dammit > > > Hello-- > > > > > > My surgery date is this friday (eeeeek)!
