RE: Surgery finally???
Is the right word congratulations? So many stupid doctors out there. We took 30 years before we self dxd as having Celiac because it was "all in our head". We recently had physio for newly developed Sciatica. The young woman noted that we could endure a lot of pain. Practice. Even for people who don't have your physical stuff adapting to physical pain s part of the process.

As for waking up early, been there. What we have come to realize through the many and varied procedures we have had is that we do tend to wake before others. We had a scope done by a doctor with a brain. We had told him that we wake up so he gave us 4x the amount and we still regained consciousness although felt no pain and couldn't speak. He didn't believe me at first until I told him what I heard him say (nothing bad). he was stunned. This was not a full surgery so I wasn't under like you will be. And this was the first time where someone other than a big has awakened after surgery. (We had 2-3 others). I don't know how much connection you have with the littles but perhaps you could ask them where they would like to spend the time during the surgery. Create a special room for them to hang out in; Making it less likely for them to wander out. Two is very forward. We were comfortable enough with the gyne to tell her about our condition and Two coming forward got us a private room so some good came out of it. It was 5 years ago and I can laugh now but oh my was I embarrassed at the time. What you share is personal to you but if there are things you are aware of like less sensitive to anesthetic (how do you do with freezing at the dentist) the easier it will be for everyone. I hope I haven't scared you. You have an advantage over us in that hubby will probably be there. If a little does show up perhaps he can drop by post op and suggest she stays inside until you go home. Wish you all the best.
