Should I be concerned about my sense of calmness?
I'm scheduled for surgery on Monday, February 17,2003. I feel like there's something wrong with me. I haven't been freaking out emotionally. I feel very calm so far. I've been doing the last supper thing this week. I'm depressed, because my family doesn't support me in my decision to have the surgery. Thank goodness my husband makes up for all of them with his support! But, I keep wondering if I am really prepared for what I'm about to do, or am I kidding myself? Don't get me wrong, I'm scared about what's going to happen, and all of the life changes that will take place afterwards. But, I wonder if I've really accepted the reality of it all. I know that there's really no way to completely prepare yourself mentally, but I'm scared that maybe I'm not being realistic with myself. What if I wake up Monday in recovery and realize I made a big mistake? Does this make any sense? Maybe I'm not as calm as I think I am.... Thanks everyone! - Autumn
