Well my bag is packed and I'm ready to go. Leaving at 6.15am tomorrow morning for the hospital. I'm excited but nervous. Trying not to think about things too much. Don't know how I'm going to sleep tonight.
Best wishes to all others going under the knife on the 27th.
Wish me luck guys

Just need the info through from my renal consultant and I can book in, GP gave me copies of all my renal scan reports so that should help too. It all sees to be coming
