I just read the memorial page, & second thoughts. Help!

I know that surgery has it's risks, but they have always seemed very distant. I just finished reading the memorial page, and I'm literally on the verge of tears. The risk of death and complications that I have pushed to the back of my head have suddenly jumped to the front and I am faced with the realization that I could die. I always thought that those had passed had always had underlying health problems and were super obese but I have come to the realization that that's not true. One profile had a girl that passed and she was my age and weight and had no underlying health problems. I am so afraid. Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated. For some reason I am sure that I will die, and I can't shake this feeling...... Help.
