tomorrow - pre-op meeting

Tomorrow is the pre-operation meeting with the doctor...holy cow! Ummm, starting to feel a bit real here! I was not in a good place last night, I was in a lot of lupus pain, and wondering why I had to deal with so much pain, a trip to the oncologist today to deal with some swollen lymph node issues, AND having brain surgery next week. I mean, c'mon, shouldn't there be limits to how much someone has to deal with??

Feeling somewhat better today. Tylenol helped the pain and the oncologist still doesn't think the lymph nodes warrant worry.

Things are pretty much under control, though it's going to be a busy weekend tying up lots of loose ends. A last minute complication has me going to the cardiologist on Friday so he can give me a clean bill of health for the surgery.

Hopefully we'll learn a lot tomorrow and the details will fall into place. It has been frustrating now knowing very much at all about the surgery -- we won't even know what time the surgery is scheduled for until Friday evening.
