Good news

I just spoke with my surgeons assitant. She said that for the side surgery, the incision will only be about 2 inches. From the research I've done on the internet, I had thought the incision was going to be much longer.

I've also been researching this new surgery he is going to attempt on my back. It looks like people have had really good results with it, and I'm hoping he is able to do it that way. You may or may not want to see it, but there is a video of the procedure here: http://trans1.com/. I only watched a little bit of it.

I'm feeling pretty good today. I think this whole thing is going to be easier than I originally thought.

I check in Monday morning at 6:30am. Surgery is scheduled for 8:30.
