I know most people would be nervous at this point, but I know I'm ready and I know this is the right thing for me. It's exiciting to think that my hip issues (the right hip at least) are soon going to be no more. I'm not expecting to be able to run a marathon, or play soccer, but I'm ready to be able to run around with my friends and not have to constantly be thinking about how something is going to effect my hips. I'm ready to not have to worry about going up and down steps, and most of all I'm ready to live painfree (or at least live with decreased pain) !
Blood...Check!
I donated my last unit of blood last night. (I did two all together) My hemoglobin droped about 1.5 which isn't terriable, but I have to make sure I load up on iron. I have to keep it above 12 (it was 13.3 before I gave blood this last time) inorder to be able to have surgery.
Cream of Wheat here I come!
P.S. Thank you for all the good wishes, it really means a lot to me.
You inspire me with your positive attitude and work ethic. Barb
