The Day Before

Tomorrow is the big day!

Today I'm laundering all the clothes in special detergent for sensitive skin, as I've been warned my skin sensitivity will change after surgery. We've got a hotel booked next to the hospital because we're going to navigate a nasty ice storm and we'd rather do it this evening than at 4 am. Plans are made with the babysitter and it's almost time!

My cold is much better! I have a slight runny nose but my nasal passages are clear and there is no congestion in my chest. No fever. So surgery is a go!

I'm starting to get really, really nervous. I took before pictures last night, and I am just horrified. Ugh. It's so hard to look at your body through the lens of a camera. I'll post them on the blog when I have pretty 'after' pictures to post next to them!

This time tomorrow I'll be cut open on a table with a surgeon doing any number of horrific things to my body to make me look normal again. I'm not the praying type, but if you are, please think of me tonight.
