Was anyone fixated on the morbidity rate of wls before you had it done?

I've tried to do as much research as I can on wls but I stil fear the surgery may take my life before I get to see its benefits. I know at least 4 people who did not live past thier first 30 days post-op. Research says deaths are usually do to dvt(deep vein thrombosis) or infection and happen within the first 30 dys of surgery. Did anyone get into detail with their doctors about this pre-op or am I just being afraid of my own shadow. Help!!! I am very afraid and need all hands on board and all words of wisdom.
