Surgery or Not Surgery

May 17, 2011

Well, all I've done practically for the past few weeks is read and search for inormation and answers about WLS. I've definitely decided on the sleeve.  So now it's not WHICH, it's IF. Of course I need it, and reading about all the success stories makes me giddy with anticipation of what life could be like if I get it. But I wonder how many people change their minds as often as I have. One day I'm scared by something I've read and I'm not getting it, next day I can't wait to have it. Back and forth back and forth!!!  I talked to my coordinator at Dr. Cavasoz's office last week and she thinks we can have insurance approval and a surgery date by the end of May. That's only weeks away!!!!! My oldest daughter and grandson are coming to visit June 3rd. My daughter will go back the 9th, but my grandson is staying until July 7th. I'm a little worried about having the surgery before they get here, or while my grandson is here. Especially if I have a hard recovery. Sooooooo.... I have all these things going through my mind.   I want soooooo much to get rid of all this extra weight and feel good and healthy again. I'm so afraid of complications. I want it, I don't want it, I want it, I don't want it. I should have known this would be a hard decision since I have not been a good decision maker for quite awhile. Head fog! I wonder if WLS will cure that? hmmmmmm something to think about!
