I'm back

[buttercup7676]

Sorry I've been gone so long, but ive been working hard towards my goals.
I had my MRI and the lesion on my kidney has gotten smaller...good news. But I have gallstones, and that would be why I get bad chest pains periodically. So my gallbladder has to come out.
That surgery is scheduled for July 8th, and I got my bypass surgery date today and it is August 12th.
I have so many emotions right now. I'm happy, excited, scared, nervous and about 10 more emotions I didn't even know existed.

You have a lot happening in a short period of time, so it's no surprise that you're feeling a mix of emotions right now. Having both a gallbladder surgery date and a bypass surgery date makes everything very real.

Just remember that each step is moving you closer to your goal. You've worked hard to get to this point, and now you have a plan in place. Feeling excited, nervous, happy, and scared all at the same time is completely normal.

Wishing you a smooth gallbladder surgery, an easy recovery, and all the best as you count down to August 12th. You've got a busy summer ahead, but it sounds like you're moving in the right direction!
