Surgery is planned for Thursday!!! My one night in hospital has already prepared me for some of what to expect. If I have a similar bed, I will be in agony. The bed is as stiff as a board. I am not just complaining, it really is! The gowns are nothing too different then in US but the thing I can't understand is all the gowns and other hospital ware is all XL. I'm like drowning in them. I don't get this, especially here. There's not a single person who lives here that needs this size! Other than that the amenities are ok. I can at least watch my CNN

I know I will go stir crazy after 5 days here, but I will have to look at the end game!
My attitude toward this trip had done a 180. I can now see the finish line. Yesterday I was disqualified for no apparent reason lol. It's also becoming more real. I have caught myself saying, what the hell are you doing!?!? Am I really 14,000 miles away in Bangkok? It just doesn't seem real at times. I know though once Thursday morning comes around. That will change. Even more so Thursday afternoon and Friday!
I will try to keep informed anyone who's interested. I know reading about others experiances greatly helped me, and still does (CarrieLiz!). Please help me pray for a great surgery and good recovery. Thank you, Shelly
