Good for you.... Congrats!!!! 

I spoke to the nurse in charge of cancellation today and she told me that sometimes ppl call in last minute to cancel..... so be prepared because when they call you with a cancellation you just have a few days to prepare.

It is so great to know the date. Gives you time to be organized and prepared and the summer time is a great time to be off work for a while. You will be able to rest in a lawn chair. 

referral: early June 2016; surgery Feb 21, 2017

Ya that puts me into mid July and you even later.  Sucks but like you said what can you do.  If we have to look at the bright side it gives us more time to put good habits into place.
