Congratulations on making a decision. That was the hardest part, I think.
And what do you mean the support groups are all full? TE is the bestest support group you can possibly get, and is never over-full. 
Good luck. Enjoy the ride with your sisters, recover well from the surgery, then get on with life. And come here for support when you need it. We are here for you.
Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.
