Sally, I am going to email you too since I have a lot to say to you. I can relate to being scared but I have found that it depends on the day and my mood and the support I get from AMOS, friend and family. I read your surgery page/journal and was so touched by the pain in your life, both physical and emotional.(love the angel and music by the way--beautiful) May I suggest you re-read it sometime on a bad day? You make so many good points and your journal could be your own best coach!! What a wonderful person you are......don't you see that? Well, you should because it slapped me right in the face as I read!! Hang in there because as you say...tommorrow is another day and you will feel stronger and more able to fight these fears and doubts. I am here if you need to talk or vent. Big Hug! Carol Percel

SALLY- HANG IN THERE- BETTER DAYS ARE AHEAD... "It is not easy to live life sometimes And face the world with a smile when you're crying inside It takes a lot of courage to reach down inside yourself. Hold on to that strength that's still there And know that tomorrow is a new day with new possibilities. But if you can hold on long enough to see this through You'll come out a new person-stronger, With more understanding and with a new pride in yourself From knowing you made it."

Dear Sally, I just wanted you to know I am thinking about you and I feel very empathetic. I had a bout with agoraphobia a few years back and couldn't leave my house. I know that your situation is much worse because you have the will to go, just not the way YET. I am glad that you write your thoughts down and I would be glad to write back and forth anytime that you feel like it. Keep that strong will of yours up and keep counting down the days. Just think of how happy Dennis will be when you fly out to surprise him. Love and hugs.

Sally, Praise God. He is good. I am so happy that you have a date! You have always been in my prayers and I ache for you with each hurddle you have had to clear. I understand how hard it is to accept from others what we have lost the ability to do for ourselves. Like Robin said however, this is how we are nurtured. This surgery is a gift to return us to our purpose of caring for others. How much better are we going to relate to our patients after being so dependant ourselves. God has purpose to ALL we go through in life. My prayers like those of so many will be with you daily. Thank you for sharing your journey with me and others who may have found courage through your strength. You have truely become one of my heros. God Bless You. I love you. Toni Kadel RN

Dear Sally, You are so eloquent and you have the capacity to move people toward you. I read your posts and relate so well. You ask, "How does a person accept so much daily help and not feel so worthless as a human being??" All I can think of is a small child receiving love and care and help from her parents, without which she would feel worthless! If children are not properly cared for, they suffer greatly from feeling undesearving and worthless, but if they are properly cared for, they learn that they are worthy of love and care. Try to take the help of your friends and your AMOS family as God's message to you of your worth. You are worthy and desearving of love and care and help. And you are being helped because the people in your life recognize and value your worth as a friend and a person. God did not put us on this earth to take this journey alone and uncared for. Speak gently to yourself and know, even if you can't feel it, that you are a person of value and worth, and people recognize that. God's blessing to you and congratulations on receiving your surgery date. Hang in there. Robin
