Waiting....I hate the waiting
I am waiting and waiting for Monday morning. I have to be there at 7.00am. No probs, Just have to leave home at 6.00am - that means getting up at 5.30 so I am not blurry eyed.
Only close to home so...

Hi Sandy
Four weeks ago today I had to be at the hospital at 7.00am for my mastectomy! For us it was a 1 1/4 hour drive so up around 5 to have the hair wash shower!! We didn't go to bed early, knowing we wouldn't sleep much but surprisingly did get a couple of hours.
I in fact found it good - first ones to be 'checked in', paper work and basic checks done, visit from anaethetist and only just made it into the lovely gown as they came to collect me. The not hanging around in the ward was great - I arrived in theatre as scheduled at 8.00am and don't remember anything from shortly after until 1.00pm (I had a reconstruction at the same time).
So there are some good things in my experience to the early morning op!!
Good luck with it all, Dette xx
