My turn to ask for prayers...

Tomorrow is the day that I get my Hernia repaired and a Anchor Tummy Tuck done. I am excited and yet scared.
I'm excited to no longer have to deal with this scary hernia and I am excited to have the loose skin gone.
I'm scared about not waking up after surgery (yeah, I know that's lame but it's the truth) and I'm scared about what the incision will look like going all the way down my stomach and then all the way across my pelvic area...........YIKES!!
Now that I wrote those things down, maybe I can sleep better tonight and just get this whole thing over with tomorrow.
Thanks for letting me put in to writing what I am feeling right this very minute.

Fran...

Im two weeks out today from anchor TT and BL/BA. Its a tough go at first but just remember it gets better everyday!! Take your pain pills and dont try to be a hero just yet. Listen to your body and rest rest rest. You will love your new tummy even with the long incisions.

Here's to a quick and easy recovery for you....

hugs,
kim
