Lap surgery tomorrow

Hi everyone,

My surgery date is finally coming tomorrow.  I have very mixed emotions I guess.  But I am surprised at how calm and at ease I feel today.  I just want to get it over with.  I had me pre-op last Friday and it was very informative but lasted 3 hours!! Anyways,  I followed everyone's advices on preparing for the days after the lap and I feel ready now.  I hope and pray that everyone's surgeries are successful and may God take care of all of us.  Thanks to all of you for your support and I will be back here after the surgery and let everyone know how it went.  Oh and by the way, My doc seems to think I have a teratoma cyst. What do you guys know about them?  The doc said that usually they don't have mussle tissue around so it is easier to isolate them during surgery without removing the ovary.  I am praying that's the case.  Anyways, good luck to everyone who is having surgery tomorrow.

My surgery is tomorrow too.  I wish you all the best and I understand the feelings.  I am really pretty calm most of the time, but then I am apprehensive too.  You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
