So true

I really must remember this.

Finally a little good news


I was sitting in work and my cell phone rings with a strange number I don't recognize, but I reluctantly answer it.

My RE was calling me to check in and see how I was doing.  I told her when the surgery was and she told me I was in good hands with my neurosurgeon and not to worry and there are plenty of fertility treatment options for me after surgery.

I can't begin to tell you how much I love her.  This is a huge step considering the neuro told me there was a huge possibility I wouldn't be able to get pregnant after surgery and possibly turn menopausal. She really put my mind at ease today and helped with the anxiety about the surgery.  To say I'm over the moon happy right now is an understatement.

I know it's still going to be a long road ahead of us but this is a huge step forward.

It's scheduled.


I came home late from work and going to the gym, cooked dinner, ate and did the dishes.  I finally get around to opening up today's mail and there was a letter from my Neurosurgeon.  At 1st I thought it was just another bill, I swear I'm going to owe Yale my 1st born (oh wait never mind they might not get that) I read the letter and my surgery has been scheduled.

It's set to go on Oct 30 2012, I have to be to the hospital at 6:00 am and I'm really not looking forward to that.  Theyalso scheduled my pre-surgery testing including another MRI and CT Scan and a physical.

I also have to meet with my Neurosurgeon at after all the testing to explain surgery to me and make sure I understand it all.

This just got very real!
