A few weeks have gone by and my son has adjusted pretty well to preschool.  I am home with my other son giving him the attention he needs.  My father who had time off from work offered to go with me to my appointment with the surgeon. I was told by the surgeon that he performs surgery at the Wilmington hospital.  My surgery was to be scheduled as an impatient procedure.  The doctor said I should be home the very next day.  He explained the surgery and the anesthesia that was to be given.  I was to not have anything to eat or drink after midnight.  He said it was a simple procedure and that I had nothing to worry about.  I thought about this comment the night before my scheduled surgery while I was tossing and turning in bed.
