On the Eve of Surgery

I can't believe it is finally here. It seems like it was so long ago they set my surgery date over a month away. It couldn't get here fast enough. And now? Here it is.

People asked me all day yesterday if I was nervous. Oddly enough, I'm not. I've educated myself. I've prayed fervently. I've discussed every aspect with multiple people. I'm confident in my decision. I'm confident in my surgeon. Most of all I'm confident in my God. I have felt His hand in every step of this process.

Took my medical solution shower last night. Gotta do it again tonight and then again in the morning. Have to put a nausea patch on tonight and then take one dose of medication in the morning. It's kind of a lot to remember!

I am on a liquid diet today. I'm feeling it now. I've been working around the house a lot trying to tidy up and make things easier on my family and on my return home. I think my activity caught up with my lack of calories.

Yes, yes it did. I've been sitting here like a vegetable for an hour! Time for another shake and see what else I can knock out.

I am at peace. God has this and whatever that means, whatever He has planned, I have put my hope and trust in Him.

"He must increase and I must decrease." - John 3:30

Be blessed and be blessings y'all!
