Down to the Wire

My surgery is approaching, about 36 hours away, and I am getting anxious. I am trying to think of it as the sooner I get this done, the sooner I get to start my recovery. This process has been painful, long and very scary to me at times. I have never dealt with or gone through anything like this before and I hope that this is the last. I never thought I would be in this position and I am definitely ready to get back to my true love, running. I am very scared of what is to come and I definitely fear the pain. This would not be my first surgery, but it is definitely the biggest one I have ever needed.

My boyfriend, Andrew, and his family have been very supportive and helpful throughout the process. They are keeping me in their prayers, which gives me comfort. My family has been there every step of the way and will be with me through the hospital stay and recovery process.

I have just been trying to relax and enjoy my time with family, friends and lots of good food! lol I am not looking forward to the surgery, but rather looking forward to getting back to running and all the things I love. Having no pain will also be a nice change to my most recent months and hopefully my hip will no longer pop in and out of place.

I will not be blogging for the next few days, but once I begin to feel better I will be back to documenting the process and will be started with the recovery process!
