Scared.. Normal??

OK Guys, MY surgery is Friday.. Everyone's asking me am I nervous? not really.. Am I excited? don't know.. I will tell you though I am SCARED!!!! I am so scared that something's going to happen, I can't leave my kids and hubby... I have prayed that this is the right things for me to do. and I have a Surgeon that I trust.. I'm not worried about the changing in eating habits, thats what I am having this for.... I just hugged and loved on my babies (son 4 and daughter 1) all weekend... I gave them erxtra kisses, took lots of pictures... I am actually sitting here crying now.. Everyone tells me that I will be ok. and I trust God, I just have always had a horrible fear of death.... I have total Faith in God above, I would just like this fear to calm. I need all the prayers that I can get. I need to feel ok... I hope someone understands how I feel.... I mean I'm not scared all the time.. There are times that I am very calm.... oh well. God Bless Kim

DEAREST KIM, BLESS YOUR SWEET HEART. I THINK WE ALL HAVE FEARS GOING INTO SURGERY. THE "WHAT IFS" CREEP IN AND IT CAN MAKE US CRAZY. BUT, YOU SAID IT IN YOUR OWN WORDS,"I HAVE TOTAL FAITH IN GOD ABOVE", THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE. WE HAVE A LOVING AND PROTECTIVE SAVIOR. LEAN ON HIM. HAND YOUR FEARS OVER TO HIM. HE LOVES US SO. HE IS OUR FATHER. IMAGINE YOUR 4 YEAR OLD COMING TO YOU WITH A PROBLEM THAT YOU ALREADY KNOW IS REALLY NOTHING TO FRET ABOUT. YOU WOULD CONSOLE HIM, HUG HIM, REASSURE HIM, AND HOLD HIS HAND IN YOURS UNTIL HIS ORDEAL PASSED. WE ARE CHILDREN IN THE EYES OF OUR LORD. HIS CHILDREN. HE LOVES US AS WE LOVE OUR OWN, ONLY MORE,(IF THAT'S AT ALL POSSIBLE). OUR DEAR FATHER WILL CONSOLE YOU, HUG YOU, REASSURE YOU, AND HOLD YOUR HAND IN HIS UNTIL YOUR ORDEAL PASSES. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. WE ARE ALL SO BLESSED TO BE BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST. ALL MY LOVE, CARMELLA

Hi Kim, My name is Wendy and I'm from Tampa, FL, I think we would have cause to worry about you if you weren't a little bit scared! The bible says in 2 Timothy that God does not give us a spirit of fear but gives us love, a sound mind and power, cling to His love and know that if He didn't want you to have the surgery, He wouldn't have allowed the doors to open for you to have it. Cling to His outstretched hand and let Him walk you through this exciting time of your life. I will pray for you on friday! God Bless! Wendy T.

Hi Kim, I know exactly how you feel. I have not had my surgery yet....but I am also scared out of my witts!!! I do have faith in God that he will bring me through it, and he will do the same for you. I have lifted you up in prayer, and ask that God will guide the hands of your surgeon. I prayed that he will bring you, and your family comfort & peace. GOD BLESS YOU !!! BRENDA
