dont worry about anesthesia they will put something in your IV and you wont  even remember passing out. trust me i just did this 4 days ago. it goes so quickly the first night i had a stomach ache but they gave me morphine and that first night was the worst of it  you'll do fine   good luck !!

Lots of healing thoughts coming your way.  Don't worry about the anesthesia, you won't feel a  thing    Seriously, mixed emotions are so normal.  I wish you a textbook surgery & recovery.  Please let us know how it goes. hugs,

Michelle, What you are feeling is completely normal!! Take a deep breath & exhale!!! You are in awesome hands! I had my surgery 6 months ago last Tuesday (just came back from my 6 month follow up) & I can tell you that it is going to be just great!!! Dr Clarke is wonderful & so is his OR team!! The anesthesiologist is great (kinda cute too )!! I didn't have many nerves to deal with but he made sure I understood everything!! You have nothing to worry about!!  I will be thinking about you all day Friday!!! Big HUGS!!!! Just remember to keep taking deep breaths!! You've made it through the tough part... from here on out is a cinch!! Cece
