Successful date in the OR with Dr. Kreymerman

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2010 Successful date in the OR with Dr. Kreymerman I had a very successful date with Dr. Kreymerman on Thursday in his OR, and I just want to update you. Tamy, Eric, and I got to the Mayo Hospital around 1:00 pm. Floods of memories came back to me as I stepped on the elevator to the 2nd floor waiting area. Although I don’t remember this, Eric later told me I had a horrible panic attack in that waiting area, and today I was afraid of that happening again.

Learn Grow and Teach Others
Learn, Grow and Teach Others It’s 3:40 a.mm; I have not been able to sleep tonight. My mind is wandering all over the place. I’m not allowed to eat or drink anything until after my surgery today, and actually, that would be no big deal except that I don’t have to be at Mayo Hospital for check-in until 1p.m. this afternoon. I’m not exactly sure what time my date with Dr. Kreymerman starts in the operating room… sure hope he doesn’t stand me up again this time…. haha. This migraine headache of mine does not want to surrender. Wholly Toledo, it won’t go away, I’m sure the pain in my hips is still there, but this past few days, I have been taking so much migraine medicine it has helped it to subside a little….just a tiny blessing I like to call a Tender Mercy. I constantly receive emails from women dealing with cancer who have been searching the web for information and come across my blog or who have been given my blog as a suggestion from one of their fr
Surgery Changed to Thursday, Oct 14th
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2010 Surgery Changed to Thursday, Oct. 14th The woman who made a mistake at Mayo Clinic coding my surgery with my insurance company called me today to give a formal apology. I am grateful for her phone call today as I thought about it. Sometimes it’s difficult to say you’re sorry and admit you made a mistake. I told her that she was only human and we all make mistakes, but I did not want Dr. Kreymerman bumping someone or changing anyone else’s surgery time because of what had happened to me. That is not fair to those patients. If they feel my anxiety, I would never want them to go through that. I just asked him to please add me at the end of a day when he can fit me in, and I was told that day will be this Thursday….just not sure of the time yet, sometime in the afternoon. I had a good friend put this into perspective for me, Heavenly Father has been in charge from the beginning of my journey, and he still is. Although the anxiety I have been feelin
Surgery Cancelled Monya Williams Monya
MONDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2010 Surgery Cancelled I’ve had horrible anxiety and a migraine that won’t go away since Friday when I met with Dr. Kreymerman…. not because of him. Everyone who knows me knows I am totally confident in him and that I think he can do no wrong. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Maybe I am worried about the recovery. Perhaps I’m afraid of the possible side effects. Who knows? All I know is it’s really worrying me. This was my timeline today: 7:30 am wake up with anxiety and figure out a way to get my mind to Paris on a bike in the woods 8:30 Recker and Kayla come over….ahh I get to play with my favorite guy in the world 9:30 clean out the freezer… it’s been a while 10:30 clean up Recker’s mess, he got into a bag of flour and spread it all over the kitchen, and I loved watching every second of it 11:30 phone call from Mayo Hospital confirming my surgery tomorrow. and getting all my 12:30 lunch and watch Recker take a nap…there i
