I dont like this

So I am going out for dinner for the first time since surgery. Its my freinds birthday so we getting together. A lot a people will be there that know Ive had surgery and havent seen me. Now granted I only had surgery 6 weeks ago, but I feel like they will all be looking at me and judging me. So here I am like a weirdO doing my hair, buying a new outfit. God I hope I dont feel this on display for ever.

I know what you are saying, I feel the same way, I went to a school thing with my kids the other night and felt like I needed to dress up like I was going to a fancy dinner cause everyone there knew I had the surgery and I felt they would all be looking at me and judging me even though its only been around six weeks for me too. I felt on display like you said, but it all turned out ok, I had a couple people come up to me and said wow!! your doing great! so I felt ok by the time the night was over, Im sure you will be fine too.

I know exactly what the both of you are saying. I do feel like I'm on display. Last night I bought new jeans to wear to a fall festival at the church. When I walked in you woulda thought I was a celebrity or somethng. While I love the support and sincerity....I am not used to the attention and I don't really know how to handle it. Just makes me feel weird. Donna
