Scared

My surgery is scheduled for May 25. I have to be there at 5:30 a.m. and surgery starts at 7:30. I am excited and scared at the same time. One minute I am so excited that I am ready to start living my life again. Then the next minute, I am thinking "what in the world am I doing"? I don't want to die but I am afraid that if I don't have the surgery I will. I work for a very large company. Two people that I know of, has passed away from this surgery. One was just this past week. I do know of others that have done very well. I really need some reassurance right now. Please pray for me.

I have not had the surgery but I think postive and you'll do just fine. Tell yourself that you'll wake up a new person and on the losing side.

ok i have a question? and it may sound stupid, but i am aware that some poeple have died from this surgery. my question is what is the cause of death? is it directly related to the type of surgery or is it related to having abdominal surgery ? tammi
