One down (almost), one to go!

Hey friends and family!
I need your prayers again tomorrow. I am having surgery to remove my fallopian tubes and my ovaries tomorrow at 11:30. I check in at 10:30. I would SO appreciate prayers for peace and comfort for David and me. I haven't been worried at all this week, but it's after midnight and my mind is still going. I'm ready for this to be over. I would also love prayers for an easy procedure with no complications, and that the doctors would be skilled and aware. I spoke with the anesthesiologist tonight, and he is so kind. I am fairly certain that he was my doctor when I delivered Henry. I'm glad that there will be many familiar faces in the operating room tomorrow. (Have I mentioned that everyone at Presby has been amazing?!)

This procedure is supposed to be pretty quick with an easy-ish recovery. I figure that I've had 3 c-sections and a double mastectomy...this HAS to be an easier recovery, right?! Ha! Please pray that I would be able to get back to normal fairly quickly. Annie has a game at one on Saturday, and I'd love to go. David says that we will see...I know I'm being overly ambitious, but I hate missing stuff like that.

Thank you for praying for us this whole year. I truly cannot explain how much it has lifted my spirits, and made a difference in my life. Every time I am nervous about something, y'all step in and pray, and I literally can feel the weight come off my shoulders.

Tomorrow will be one more thing to cross off our list, and then it's only one more surgery. I dread the IV and coming out of anesthesia, but I am ready to lay on the couch and watch Netflix tomorrow afternoon. Yay! Thank you for loving us and being such an encouragement to us. I hope everyone has a fabulous Friday!
