Exciting Day Tomorrow

I'm starting to get a bit nervous. I had a great meeting with the surgeon last Monday to discuss having my gallbladder out. He'd had a cancellation, so he asked if I could do surgery tomorrow. I'm glad there wasn't much of a wait, but it is kind of sudden. Still, I'm excited at the prospect of having this done. Much like having my tonsils out 8 years ago, this will make a real quality of life difference for my family. I know they encourage one to move around, sit up, etc. following surgery, so I'll try to do a bit of stream of consciousness or something to chronicle my experiences. Reading other people's experiences helped me understand what to expect and how to manage recovery, so I'll contribute to that body of knowledge the best I can.
