My special date is March 16th
Hi Tuesday, My date is the 15th of March so I know just how you feel. Im very nervous too but I just keep going back and reading and rereading the post from all here. The profiles help alot so I can see that many, most, had the same fears right before surgery.
I wish you the best on your surgery, we all know how fast time goes by and soon you will be on the losing side!
Hey, hang in there... you are almost there! My date isn't until 3/31, so I totally understand your nervousness. My anxiety level is maxxed out! A friend of mine suggested to me yesterday, to get a new journal and start writing all my thoughts about my surgery down... I'm starting that today. I'm also starting a photo-journal scrap book to help me see my progress... these things keep my mind a little less occupied with the "scary" stuff and more occupied with the HAPPY stuff! Good luck!

Hi Tuesday!!
My name is Laura, I am new to this site as of today. My surgery is 3/15, and I feel the same way you do!!
My nervousness lies in after the surgery, will I do everything right that I have to do? I already had a melt down last night, and cried today at work. I have a wonderful co worker who had it done 20 months ago, and without her and my husband, I would be a complete basket case!!
Just take a deep breath, look @ yourself in the mirror, and smile. My coworker told me today something today that made sense. She told me to be nice to myself, and to relax because I have finally found a tool that is really going to make me healthy again! So I am passing that on to you!
Take care,
Laura
