I HAVE A SURGERY DATE....BUT A LITTLE SCARED ABOUT IT
Patricia..
This is the great thing about this site.. you are never alone in the thoughts and feelings you have about this journey. As others have said it's natural to be a bit afraid of what is about to happen. I know for I too have fears that I have about going through with this. btw my surgery date is the day after yours June 22nd. But the fears are fewer when I think of all that I am going to gain by having this surgery. I gain my life back a chance to do all the things I had taken from myself. To be healthier and happier.. to be amongst those who have chosen this step. to free themselves. It is the only way I can go. I go with god and the love and support of family, friends and all my friends here that are doing the same. You are not alone.. we are with You .. Please email me any time you wish to talk. And i commend You for the courage to speak out of having fears..for doing so will help free You of them. Hang in there! You will be in my prayers.
