Surgery Date Set

This week I finally got up enough courage to call and schedule my appointment for surgery. November 7th (the day after election day) is on the calendar. It is definitely scary having a date circled on the calendar; it is finally becoming more and more of a reality. 

I have also spoken with our principal at school and have begun the FMLA paperwork, since I will be out of school for more than 5 days. My principal and co-worker are being very accommodating about missing so much school. I HATE missing school, but this is one case where I need to take care of myself and not worry about missing school. They will be just fine without me for a few weeks.
