I'm looking for support...

My surgery date is set for July 21st. Anybody else on that date? I'd love to hear from you. I'm looking for support, maybe a buddy who is also going to experience this around the same time. Hope to hear from you. Regards, Sharon.

Hi Sharon, My name is Maureen and I am waiting on the surgeon to call me back this afternoon to confirm the 21st as my surgery date also. I don't know about you, but I am very excited but also very scared and nervous. I know this is what I want, but I also want to come out of surgery alive!!! You let me know how your feelings are and hopefully we can go through this together. My email address at work is [email protected] or home is [email protected]. Thanks, Maureen Johnson

Hello Sharon! I will be having my surgery exactly 7 days before you. which means, of course, that as soon as I'm out of the hospital you'll be going in. I wasn't nervous before, but now I am starting to get nervous... REAL nervous! It's not the fear of "What happens if something goes wrong" but more along the lines of "What if this doesn't work? What if can't stick to it?" But then the fear subsides, and then I know IT WILL WORK! IT TOO DRASTIC A CHANGE FOR ME TO FAIL! ANd then I'm good, for oh.... about an hour.... Need to talk, email me!

Hi Sharon!!!! I'm Pam. I am having my surgery on July 21,2003 as well. I would love to be a buddy for you, because I am looking for a buddy as well. I want to find someone with the same surgery date as myself so we can compare aches and pains and the anxitey of waiting for surgery. Hope to hear back from you. God bless you. ~Pamela~
