I am having surgery in the morning (to put it succintly, I'm being spayed). 

The situation at work has caused me a great deal of stress and I'm really trying to get into the right *mindset* for this surgery.  I will have to stay overnight and I'm not really happy about that, but not much I can do.

Good luck deltadarlin .  will send good vibes your way.

Keep your attitude positive and you will be fine!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Marc

You will be in our thoughts and prayers, Carolyn. Not only for a successful procedure, but for quick healing and peace of mind.

Vibes for quick healing, Carolyn.

Good vibes coming your way....

Look at the bright side.... They're just taking out the baby carriage, but leaving the playpen intact... :) (Hey come on -- that's what someone told me when I was trying to get psyched up for it!).

And you're gonna feel SO much better - on that one you can trust me.

You'll be in my prayers in the morning. :-*

Good Luck Carolyn!  Make sure you get lots of pampering when you get home.

Carol

All good wishes, Carolyn.  Hope to hear that you're on the mend very soon.

Good luck honeybun,

Talk soon love, me xx

Good luck and vibes kid.

The hospital has WiFi so I will be taking my laptop with me.  I am as ready as I will ever be.  The bag is packed, the alarm is set, all I have to do is make Jimbo's coffee and reset the timer on the pot.

Will be thinking of you all day at work tomorrow...and beyond.....and Barb just cracks me up! The vibes, prayers, thoughts, care, concern and humor here....
dang...I sure am a lucky man....how can YOU not be fortunate to have a family like this behind you????

Best,

Jon

Good luck keed.

Ahhh I was spayed 14 years ago in October.........Recovery isn't really all that bad as long as you follow your doctors orders. 

I found a heating pad to really help across the tummy to stop alot of the cramps of the clotting/healing process in the first week, and then cold packs after that.

Is it a vaginal removal or abdominal incision procedure?  Makes a world of difference in recovery, mine was vaginal, and the recovery is much smoother from what I understand.  (not like I can compare the two...lol)

All the best of healing vibes for a quick recovery going out..........

Doc is doing a lap.  Sarah was born by emergency c-section, so this is going to be a walk in the park compared to that. 

Well, it's time.  I need to go dry my hair and get dressed.  I"m sleepy and damned sure miss my morning coffee.

Hey everyone, this is Sarah, Carolyn's daughter.  I ganked her account since she apparently hasn't posted.  I saw her about 12:30 on Friday and she was doing well, though she was being stubborn as Hell and not wanting to ask for pain meds.

She'll be coming home sometime today (Saturday), but I don't know when.

I'd told her I'd post so now I have~

She's coming out of the hospital on Saturday????  WOW they sure kick em out fast these days. >:( >:( >:( That makes me angry actually.)

Carolyn, this will be one of the most rewardng surgeries in the long run.  trust me.
