Thank you all for the great tips - I really will need to learn to let others help - I am so used to being SuperMom! I do have quite a network of support, and a good friend went through Breast Cancer 5 years ago so I have a friend that gets it

I love the spray bottle with water idea and will try that tonight. I cruised around the forum tonight and wow, there are alot of great things said about my doctor, Dr Futran and Carol my NP. He was great on the first visit, talked in plain english, not medical-ese, but then I forgot so many questions (or maybe I am thinking of them now) Mostly about the actual surgery, I have never had a surgery (except the oral surgeon that took the lesion out) but I have no idea what to prepare for general anethesia, except they said no ibuprfen. they precleared me for the surgery so I do not go back in until that day 8/31...see what happens when I stay up late and can't sleep, I start thinking!
