Countdown - less than 36 hours

I'm in Houston with less than 36 hours until surgery. Tomorrow I have 4 appointments: Audiology, Anesthesia, Gidley & Weber. I'm assuming that I will find out what time to be at the hospital Wednesday morning. It will surely be some ridiculous hour, but I guess it'll be good to get an early start since it will take ALL DAY! I'm glad that I get to see the doctors one more time tomorrow because I have a few more questions.

Last night I had a hard time falling asleep and then I woke up early. I'm hoping that tonight will go better, but I'm not holding my breath. I'm now to the point where I have a constant knot in my stomach. I think about it pretty much every minute of the day. It's difficult to tell myself that everything will be just fine while still preparing myself, just in case, for the worst case. (Actually, worst case is something we won't talk about; I'm referring to the nerve graft scenario.)

Tonight I will close my eyes and think happy thoughts...
