I am 12 days away from having Vertical Gastrectomy (VG). I have to go do preop stuff 8 days from now. I am anxious to get this done, but not so anxious about the preop stuff my cardiologist wants to do.

I am back to work and hanging in there, I get real tired by the end of the day.

I switched our cell phone service from Nextel to Cingular. That is new since last writing. I will try to give updates from the hospital using my Blackberry. I want to try to keep my feelings and emotions in check and be able to recount my experiences during this new life changing event.

Take care.
JB
