Its really True!
Atlanta medical called me today to pre-regester me for my surgery
WOW! It really is true. May 7th is only 11 days away this phone call brought home the reality of it all. I'm scared to death! Am i doing the right thing? I think about all the bad things that could happen and think about my family and what would happen if God forbid something went wrong and I didnt make it out of surgery! Than I think Gosh I'm an idot God has given me a chance to change my life for the better! DAH!! I'm takeing that chance and I know its the right tool for me and I am going to be ok! Please Keep me in your Prayers I truely need them in this time of dout. Thank you to all of you my wonderful OH family! If not for you I would have ran for the hills along time ago (LOL ) your journeys have made mine much easyer.
I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH JESUS CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME(Philippians 4:13)
GOD BLESS

Okay, I wrote a blog about this just last night....I'll copy and paste it here....
Although I know it's quite normal to be scared of having surgery, I've seriously been freaking out. This usually happens at night when I'm attempting to go to sleep. Well, I have a little calendar like thing that sits in my room. It's called The LIfe You've Always Wanted by John Ortberg. Anyway, there are different exerpts for different days. So, I decided today to look at May 17th which is my surgery day to see what it said. It said....
"I know that ultimately the choice everyone faces is the choice between hope and despair. Jesus says, 'Choose hope.'"
How's that for a little peace of mind?
I think we all have these fears. It's nice to be able to "see" that others are thinking the same thing as I am.
