Nervous, nervous, nervous! I went to bed at 10:30 last night, read for 15 or 20 minutes, turned off the light and.....just couldn't sleep! I guess I went to sleep at some point, but woke up at 4:00, tossed and turned some, and decided I might as well get up.
As directed, I've washed my hair and scrubbed all over with Hibiclens (available in drugstores without prescription). It felt weird not to apply my usual face cream, mostly because I have such dry skin that I feel almost "crackly" without cream. Oh, well, who will notice the wrinkles? The directions in the notebook my doctor gave me also said not to use lotions, hair products, or deodorant. It's supposed to be 102 degrees today so yikes! We'd better crank up the AC in the car on the way to the hospital!
My surgery is scheduled for 11:00 and I'm supposed to be at the hospital at 9:00. We have terrific traffic to negotiate this morning, so we'll leave a little after 7:00. We'll probably get there early, but that's better than turning up late for something this important.
There's nothing more to say, is there? I hope it all turns out well, and I hope to post in a couple of days when I'm coherent again. Wish me luck!
