Topic: RE: 5/5/09 is my date....having fears of death!!
Hi Jill, Your not alone!! I'm in the exact same boat as you and I am feeling EXACTLY the same......my surgery date is may 11, I was asked if I wanted May 5, but i got scared and kept it the 11. Now I wi**** was sooner..... I, like you am a single mom and nervous for the same reasons, but for some reason, my fears aren't enough for me to cancel the surgery. I am going through these waves of being extememly scared and extrememly excited. What I'm finding, is surrounding yourself with positive thoughts and people who support your decision. We are going to be just fine and a few months later, we'll be wishing we did this sooner!!!
POSITIVE THOUGHTS, THIS IS AN EXCITING TIME FOR US!!! ONE WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

Congrats on getting your surgery date, my date is 20 days after your date. I am sure everything will be fine. Your surgeon is aware and will take good care of you. I always stress when I have surgeries. I have had 1 c-section, open glallbladder and a couple D & C's oh and of course the upper and lower GI I had to have for this surgery and stressed with them all. I still have a little over a month but once I see my Surgeon on the 7th of May for my pre-op appt I will start really stressing.
Do you have a liquid diet you need to do before your surgery? I have a 2 week liquid diet starting May 11th

We have the same surgery dte and I start my 10 day liquid diet on Tues. I'm hoping it won't be too bad bcuz we can have broth, yogurt, SF applesauce, yogurt smoothies (Dannon Light, carb & sugar control) and I drink Crystal Light and I also found some Powerade Zero and don't foget popsicles and fudgesicles and jeello and I have sent off for protein samples so have quite a bit so I think it will be fine linda
