Surgery Date

I got a call this morning from Johns Hopkins with a surgery date: May 24th. Wow, sooner than I expected. I am having a single mastectomy with lymph node dissection. It should take 2-3 hours and then they are sending me home. Yes, outpatient surgery. I cannot believe insurance will not pay for a single night in the hospital. I am heading to the hospital tomorrow for a pre-op checkup, blood work and a post mastectomy care class.

Now I need to figure out what to do for my daughter’s (Miranda) birthday the day after surgery, cancel my spa trip that was to take place the end of the month with a dear friend and see how much work I can get done in two workdays.
