Last day... 6 hrs to go

So, I have been and seen my friends, had a last minute shopping spree, cleaned the kitchen, packed the suitcase, drank the drink the hospital said I have to drink and now it is time to say good-bye and head off to bed, otherwise I wont wake up in the morning. I am hoping to be able to sleep, although I wouldn't bet on it.

I did have a Lavender Bath which helped to calm my nerves and I am just sipping a camomile tea, before I have to be nil-by-mouth in 30 mins time (actually, I am allowed water and was told to drink lots, so I am well hydrated). How on earth will I start the day without coffee??? Glad my ex is driving, I wouldn't trust myself in London traffic without my usual 2-3 cups of coffee in the morning. But no coffee????? And they expect me to arrive at the hospital in one piece, awake and somewhat concious??? They obviously don't know me....

Anyways, I decided to post some before pictures....it took quite a bit of courage to put these up, as I feel really ashamed of my belly, even though it is 90% fibroid (the rest of it is too much chocolate cheesecake). It is rather shocking. But when I sit here in pain in a couple of days and wonder why I put myself through this, it will serve as a reminder. This time next year I will fit back into my favourite party dress (and maybe I will be a millionaire as well.... :-) )

Nite nite folks - I will post the next update when I am back from hospital, Sunday or Monday
