Surgery is scheduled for Monday, July 25 at 3pm.
It should only be an hour this time (as opposed to 3 hours last time) and won't require a general anesthesia (thank goodness!) They will go in through the same incision and just take out a little more tissue to be a bit more aggressive. When I called Dr D's office, her nurse told me that her first OR opening is Aug 8... much too far away and too long to wait to get things started. So, I called Dr D directly, on her cell... I mean, she wouldn't have given me her cell # if she didn't want me to call, right ?
(as an aside... this reminds me of my high school days - pre Katie Burns. While many will find this hard to believe, I was *incredibly* shy before I met that girl... something about our friendship lit a spark in me and broke me free from my shell... anywho... I would be so scared to call people and ask them to hang out... go to the mall... etc... these people had written in my yearbook things like KIT, don't ever change and LYLAS, with their phone #, yet for some reason, I was terrified that if I called them, they would think "why is this loser calling me?" I guess there's something to be said for a little bit of self esteem)
So, I gave her an update and she promised to squeeze me into her schedule for early next week (this week she is volunteering as the doctor at her nephew's summer camp). And today, I got the call that we are on for Monday... so there you have it... Dr D rocks.
