T-Minus One Month and Counting

One month to go. Working now on the details and tying up loose ends.
This includes chasing down all of my pre-operative test results and having them "resent" to St. Louis. Turns out St. Louis received nothing from my 4 separate pre-of tests. Seems fishy if you ask me. No big deal though, all are sent now expect for one. Also trying to schedule my "special donations" for surgery with the Red Cross. What an ordeal! You have to leave messages all over the country and wait for them to (cross your fingers) call you back. Also, Christmas is throwing a loop in that schedule. Hopefully I can get everything done in town before Christmas (must start eating a lot of meat) or I'll have to try to schedule an appointment in VA. Also dealing with my insurance and disability right now. Hard to keep track of everything and everyone. Dealt with booking hotels too. Right now my husband and I are headed to St. Louis a day or two early so that we have a full day just to relax, be tourists, basically do whatever we want to do. Have booked a couple of nights at a sweet B&B across from a park close to DT St. Louis. Am looking forward to that!
