It's on!!

The surgery is on...Thank God!!! I am actually not nervous.....yet. I think since it almost didn't happen, that made me want it even more. I am ready to get this over with and hopefully get some answers.

Today DH and I went on a 3 mile hike to see the beautiful fall colors. It was gorgeous weather....72 and breezy. It was a great way to take my mind of the surgery and it really put me at ease.


Beautiful colors


A deer we saw on our walk


It got so close to us!!


As I have mentioned before my mom past away 5 years ago from cancer. She donated her body to a local university in hopes that they could learn from her condition. Afterwards they spread her ashes on a hillside at this park. It was really neat to look over this beautiful hillside and feel a little closer to her.


Looking out over my mom's ashes


Surgery will be @ 10:30am tomorrow. Think good thoughts!!!
