frantic

Ok everyone, Monday is my surgery day. I have to be at the university of missouri (where melissa is) at 9am. I am starting to get scared. I am snapping at my wonderful hubby. And my fur-babies. I don't want to be that way. I am not doing it on purpose.I am just in another world. My hubby has been so supportive. And I feel bad for treating him like crapi. I know he understands but I still feel bad. Help me everybody, please help calm my nerves. I can imagine what tomorrow will bring(really nervous). Hopefully I will get to see melissa Monday before she leaves. Love you guy's, patty

Patty dont be nervous it is ok to be excited but just make sure you are prayed up and that should calm you right down. Ask God to give you peace and calm . I was excited the day before my surgery but like a kid expecting some special gift ,which it was. and is. just keep your mind on the prize. The better health, ease in breathing, the ablitily to walk better, the new and improved body . Melissa may very well be there on Monday yet they said that was the goal tho . So hope she makes it. Im sure that part of your nervouseness is from he being so ill. but hang in there girl and know that we will all be praying for both you and Marilyn tomorrow. Love Jan

Jan, thank you so much for easing my mind.I think it is from not knowing how I will feel afterward(pain). But I am excited. I just want it over. I know that God will be right there with me with his hand on my shoulder. Thank you for praying for me. You all mean the world to me. Love, patty

Patty, Prayers will be going up constantly from the Mighty Missouri prayer warriors that you will have peace and also an uneventful surgery. Know how much we all love you and just rest in our love. Hugs and loveys to you. Lana

Thank you lana. I sure do love this board and everybody on it. The support is awesome. I will go in there knowing you all have you you arms wrapped around huera and me. Love you all very much, patty

Patty, Pre-surgery jitters are to be expected. Just know you have us all rooting for you and you will be fine. If you are still this anxious tommorrow or Monday they can give you a little something to calm your nerves. I plan to be there Monday with my sister so i will stop in and check on you. When others have had this surgery they were so surprised how well they felt afterwards and I am sure you will be the same. It is the fear of the unknown and I do the same thing. But when the surgery is done it is like a weight being lifted off your shoulders. You are lucky to have family support for this and I am sure they understand you are going thru an anxious time.So try to pamper yourself this weekend! Take a nice bubble bath take time to relax and maybe take that well deserved nap and enjoy the one you love and you will be fine. See you Soon JULIA

Hi julia, thank you for the reassurance. If I don't know you are there, I am sorry ahead of time, lol. You are right about fear of the unknown julia. I think that is most of it. I am very lucky to have so much support on here, my big family, whom I love very much. Thank you julia, love, patty

Dear Patty, I'm a little nervous too but I have confidence we will be okay with all of our MO board buddies praying for us. Do you have an angel? Lovely Lana is my angel and will keep everyone informed of my progress. I have to be at the hospital at 6:15! I'll still be half asleep!! Anyway, I just want to wish you a safe journey to the other side and I will see you there. Huera

Huera, thank you for calming me. And we will both be in at the same time, lol. I do not have to be there until 9 am. My angel is angela r. She is so wonderful. I too wish u a safe journey to the other side. Love, patty

both you girls hang in there, this time next week it will be over and on your way to a healthy beautiful body as God has intended us to have.. I am a little nervous, about mine but I have awhile yet.... I will be praying for both of you...God bless.... Vesta
