Active reader but first-time poster here.
Looking forward to joining the Bionic Brotherhood soon. Implant surgery by Dr Bryan Kansas is scheduled on Dec 10, 2024.
In a few hours from now, my wife and I will be taking a 3.5 hours drive to Austin, Texas. Spending a night at a nearby hotel, before heading to the medical center the next morning.
Dr Kansas in my insurance network and from what others in FT has suggested, I should be in good hands. I will provide more information regarding (Marketplace) insurance later.
Frozen peas in the freezer, prescriptions picked up. I even invested in a new powered recliner sofa.
Thanks to all of you, I believe I am quite mentally prepared for the challenges ahead, after reading all the info I can read from FT.

Re: Scheduled Surgery Tomorrow
Dr Kansas was my guy three weeks ago . I think you’re in good hands and hope everything goes smoothly. I did consider sneaking out of bed as I lay there waiting in the hospital gown but I decided I’d come through enough with the ED journey and wanted to see it through.
The staff at the surgery center were great also. Good luck.

Re: Scheduled Surgery Tomorrow
good luck brother
the frozen pop corn kernels seems like an excellent idea. I just used frozen corn (still sealed from the grocery). Only prob is that if you try to re-freeze you get larger chunks which defeats the purpose - hence the kernels.
