sara,

i'm sure your surgery will go well. these doctors do

these all the time, it's so easy for them! i really

like my surgeon. we get along very well and i trust

him. i also trust my orthodontist and since he

recommended my OS, i had no doubt in my mind that i

had the best doctor possible. because of this i wasn't

nervous about surgery at all. i figured he knows

exactly what he's doing, i trust him, what's there to

worry about? i'll also be knocked out during the

surgery, so i wasn't nervous about the actualy

procedure either. my parents were a different story.

my dad couldn't believe how calm i was. you just have

to believe that everything will be ok, and it usually

will be. about what to bring to the hospital...i

brought lots of stuff and used NONE of it. i was so

out of it after surgery that i pretty much laid in bed

or drifted in and out of sleep. reading, listening to

music or watching tv was the last thing from my mind.

the one thing that i was happy to have was my digital

camera. my friend and parents documented my time in

the hospital. it was interesting to see considering i

didn't even remember them taking them good luck

with everything! you'll be fine! btw, i had upper and

genio on dec. 17. just get through the first 3 days,

then the rest will go by faster than you think!
