Question for the day!

Good Morning again everyone! I was sitting there last night reading all of your responses to the question and was thinking to myself, What a great group of people we all are. To have been through all the things that we have been through and lived to tell the tale. Moving on. Here is today's question for the day. Right before your surgery, if you have had it already and if not feel free to still comment, What is the last thing that you remember thinking of? For me it was my husband. I had not really thought that I would not wake up from surgery until just before I went in. Then there were so many things that I wish I had said to him. I wish that I would have sat down and wrote him a letter with everything that I had ever wanted to say to him. I knew deep down that I was going to be fine but there is always that what if factor in your brain. The negative little dude on your shoulder. Sometimes I feel that I wish I had listened to it. If I had I would have been able to tell my husband things and write him things that now I probably would not tell him or will never tell him. Note for the day: Tell your loved one's you love them! Have a good one. Sarah

The last thing I thought of before surgery was my son. I asked God to see me through for his sake. I couldn't imagine not being here to watch him grow up. He is my life. So my finally thoughts where of him. Tina

Wow sarah what a question. This is my second major surgery so I was not scared this time around at all, just waiting with anticipation and then scheduled for morning and had to wait until after lunch before they got to me was really anxious by then. But the last thing I remember thinking was saying goodbye to my kids and husband and wanting to see all their faces when I wake up. Which I did see when I woke up and then fell asleep again but was glad to know that my wish had come true. Thanks sarah denise

The last thing I remember thinking to myself is my fiance'. He was there with me when they took me in. I was kinda in the same situation I wish I would have said so much more. But I cried and cried! Then next thing I remember it was over, and I was in horrible pain! lol But we made it through it and I'm still here....55lbs. later! YAY! Kristen 240/185/145ish

I have a 16 year old son whom I've raised by myself (with the help of my parents) since he was 5. I only remarried 2 years ago. We brought him to my sister's house and when I hugged him I couldn't let go. All I kept thinking about was never seeing him again and not being here for him if something went wrong. I love him so very much and I want to watch his accomplishments as he finishes his journey into a man. It was always him and I and I couldn't imagine abandoning him. He was one of my biggest supporters of this surgery though. He told me to risk it all and take the chance. Everyone I talked to on the phone that night I ended up crying with.

I did write the letters to my h and my son. My H didn't get his, but my son did and he said it really freaked him out.
