I am 6 days away from my tummy tuck and lipoma tumor removal. It's starting to get real but I am not near as nervous as I was two years ago when preparing for my breast reduction. Reading all the posts have certainly put me in a better position to prepare. I have purchased or completed the following:
Elevation Bed (with head and foot raising ability)
Overbed table (really cool...straddles bed, up to a king size)
Palmers Vitamin E Oil
Silicone Sheets for scars
Bandages
Spanx
Movable "snake" to hold iPhone/iPad
Updated Will, Living Will, HIPPA, Medical and Durable Power of Attorney
Life Insurance Policy Update/Review (should've done years ago but I'm set now)
Lined up people to come help me each day and night for at least 5 days
Stepped down from my church ministries for a while and got substitutes for that time period
Downloaded apps (Sign Language, French) to watch and learn during down time
Asked my prayer warrior groups for a little uplift in prayer on that day (and afterwards)
And, finally, took the dreaded "Before" pictures of my disgusting self and have posted.

My procedure was done almost 2 years ago, Dec. 17, 2015. It was by far the best thing I did for my body...my back, my shoulders! Here is a recent pic.
