My first post - the night before my surgery

The time has finally come and my mom and I are sitting in the "Haven House" the night before my surgery. I am getting my thyroid taken out tomorrow. Doctors found a tumor on it. It's not the first surgery I've had, but I sure hope it's the last.

It was kind of scarey coming here since we had a major ice storm last night. We drove to St.Louis this morning despite the freezing rain.

I just opened a package from a friend of mine in England. Her name is Gill. She sent me a beautiful card with butterflies on it and a pretty pair of earrings. I love them.

Next, I opened a card from a lady on one of my mom's message boards called Lucy McGoo. She made me a card with a hummingbird design on the front. On the back it said:

"A Merry-Mary Card
USA: Priceless
Canada: Priceless +15%'

That made me laugh! THANKS MARY!

Im kind of nervous and scared and just anxious to get this over with.

This blog is mostly for my friends so that they get updates on how Im doing. Please leave me comments. I would love to hear from you.
