expectations and scared

I keep remembering that all happens for a reason, and I'm in God's hands!
I am schedule for Nov. 09-'09 ... So it is less than two weeks... I dont know realy how I feel, so many feelings at the same time! Nervous, excited, scared, expective (Is that a word?) like I expect so many things, wondering, and many more!
I am in pre-op diet, and MAN!! It is so hard! I dont want to think about the liquid diet next week!!
Anyway!! I am blessed with this oportunity and I really need it, I hope that helps me a lot, hope it helps reduce my meds intake, my spine pain, sour knees and ankles, and you all know what I am talking about!!  I just wish and pray for a good recovery!   I AM SCARE!!!!!!!!!!!! so scare that I almost cry again!!!!

I wish you all a wonderful day!      (and please talk to me, I need you

Almost my birthday here!! October 30th !!!  (but no cake for this b-day !! )

It will be OK just remember all the good that will come from being healthy.  So take it one day at a time and do the best you can. 

 Hi Claudia,

I'm excited for you.  Your life is going to change in some very wonderful ways.  This surgery is the very best thing that I've ever done for my health.  I can do so many things that I couldn't do before.  I wish you all the best.  Keep posting and let us know how things are going for you.

This is a major life change.  Being scared just shows you are giving it the respect it deserves.   Stick to your pre op plan so you are in the best possible condition for surgery.  Dear God its hard but so worth it.  Good luck to you. 

Hi Claudia,

I know you are scared of the unknown.  I think we all were prior to our procedures.  But believe me what's going on in your head about the worst is just that.  Most of it is the fear of the unknown.  It's easy to invision the worst, but try and think of all the success stories you've read on here time and time again.  The odds are if you think positively, then your outcome will be positive also.  For me, it's the best decision I've ever made and my success has been miraculous!  I know yours will be too.

Best wishes for an uneventful process and think positive!
