June 28th is taken foreverrrrrrr to get here!!

It seems as though I've been waiting a life time. I keep going over everything in my mind. I'm a basket case with emotions. I just want it to be here and be over with. I think its torture to have to wait so long. Cause all you have time to do is think and rethink and think some more about everything that could possibly go wrong or end up cancelling the surgery all together. Reading the message board has helped some times and it has also made me more nervous at times. I read a post that a woman 8 mons out started vomiting blood. Guess I never thought about problems happening months later. I just keep praying everything goes well. Mostly for my childrens sake. They are my heart and they keep me going. I think how hard it would be for them to lose me. And then I remind myself that they could lose me without the surgery as well. I leave it all in God's hands at this point. I trust in him. He always makes the right choices. Praise God! Well I guess I just needed to put that down in words. I just wanted to acknowledge his greatness and my love for him. AMEN

Hi there...I'm Dorothy...I have a June 28th surgery date as well and for me, the time is going too fast! I have all my pre-op testing next week...psych eval on monday, lab work on wednesday. I want it to be over too, but I have already given it all over to God, so I'm not too worried. I have waited a lifetime for this, and I am ready! I try to think of it as 2 and a half more weeks to get things in order...get things squared away at work, take care of stuff at home, etc. etc. And heaven forbid anything should happen, yes, I've even written a will. But I look at all this as preparation. I have total faith that I will be ok, and I know you will too. I go in at 8 a.m. at USC medical center here in L.A. My thoughts and prayers will be with you, too!
