It's becoming more real...

It's been a while since my last post, as I haven't really wanted to deal with any of this hip "crap" until my appt with Dr. Trousdale was here. Well, I was able to get it moved up from the 31st, and it is this Thursday, March 19th. I figured I should probably accept that I am having to do this whole Mayo thing, it is a real deal, and I need to get my butt in gear...



I will be heading down to the Mayo tomorrow night (Wed) with my wonderful friend Jennifer. She grew up in Rochester, so that helps out my anxiety quite a bit in regards to naviating around the area. She has offered to be my support for the day, and I am so grateful for that! My appt is @ 6:45am on Thursday morning, so unfortunately we can't go hit the Rochester hot spots tomorrow night. Bummer! She will no doubt keep me entertained, and knowing her, she may even be more nervous than I am. Just what the Mayo needs...two loud, obnoxious, nervous 30 somethings on what we are calling our "date". We termed it that, as it makes it seem a lot more fun! :-)



Also, I've finally added a whole bunch of other blog links of women going through the same or a similar situation as myself. So, if you are one of those women, just know that you have inspired me in some way, shape, or form, and I have most likely spent, at a minimum, 1-2 hours up at night reading about you! Not stalking...promise. :-) To my friends and family who want to get a feel for what I am currently dealing with or will probably be going through in the next few months after surgery....there you go! Watch out though...it's easy to get sucked in...



Thanks sooooo much to all of my friends and family that have been so supportive of me with all of this stuff. I could not do it without each and every one of you. I will post more over the next day or two as I have information. Thanks for caring!
