Bless your heart. I know you must be terrified. I'm sure I
will be too. I plan to put everything in God's hands and I
know I'll be alright. Please, turn it over to God and there
will be no need to worry. Just imagine how much more you'll
be able to do with your children and how much longer you'll
be able to be with them.

I hope everything goes well for you. I can am having my surgery on May 18.
I am sure I will be just as scared the night before as you are. Just
remember all the ones who have made it through and are living a better,
healthier life now. You will be one of them after tomorrow. Best wishes
to you and your family.

Michelle, I know you are very scared for you and your family right now. I
have had these same thoughts over the past couple of weeks and I'm sure
they will all come to a head the night before surgery! A couple of nights
after my approval I was talking on the phone with my mother and I expressed
the same feelings about my children that you have written. My mother asked
me if she remembered what her faced looked like when she saw my first born
for the first time?? I said I rememebered because I cried. I cried
because it brought me so much pleasure to see my Mom SO happy and
"I" gave that to her! Then my mother said that someday the same
thing would happen to me! And thought for a couple of minutes.....I want
to see my children grow, graduate, get careers, get married and see my
grandchildren! This is the tool that will get me there! Yes the
possiblity of death is there but I truly believe in my heart that I want
this surgery for my kids JUST AS MUCH as I want it for myself! You are
going to wake up tomorrow and start a whole new chapter in your life! I'm
sure you have read the post op profiles here. These people are very
inspiring! You have the courage Michelle! Take the step and the rest will
be momentum....just imagine all of these wonderful people here holding your
hands and taking every step with you! Take care....I'm yours if you need
me.

Dear Michelle, I will be thinking of you and your beautiful family all day
today. I also have two small children and know how heavily they're little
faces can weigh on your heart. I have been crying for weeks, just hugging
them brings me to tears. But I know that if I dont do this they will very
definately have no mother in a few short years. This surgery is a CHANCE
without it, how much of a chance do we really have. Just close your eyes
tightly and concentrate on the future...I will pray for you...(((HUGE
