Scared to Death!!!

Heidi, Sending a hug and prayers your way.  Wishing you the best on your surgery tomorrow.  It's very normal to be scared before a procedure, focus on your breathing and try to relax yourself.   Many blessings to you... I know you will do wonderful Heidi

Thanks I am trying to not get myself all worked up, hopefully I will fall asleep and wake up and have to go, and then it will be over with soon.  I will report back on how it went. Hugs Heidi

Of course you're scared! Who wouldn't be? ...but before you know it , it will be done and you'll be on the mendI don't even like to think of it yet, but if I can, I'm doing it too somedayI'll be thinking possitive thoughts for you tomorrow. You're gonna do great! (((((HUGS))))) lunchlady

Thanks Lunchlady, I am trying to stay positive, I hope and pray that things go well.  Keep your fingers crossed for me. Hugs Heidi

Heidi, I'm freakin' too. So I'm with you. I was calm as can be for my RNY, I don't know why this one has me so freaked out. But don't cancel your surgery and I won't cancel mine.  I think the fear we have is that our journey is going into a new chapter, unknown territory.  It's alot of cutting to do, more extensive and well, more painful than the RNY.  But it will be worth it! You gonna look great!  Go to Makemeheal.com. There are alot of great inspirational pics on there. It may help calm your fears. Jane

Hi Jane, I am not gonna cancel, but I will probably post and make everyone nuts tonight with my fears.  I am so happy you are getting yours done soon too.  I will definately be back in a day or so and let everyone know how it went.  I just so want it over with now. Hugs Heidi

heidi, i'll be thinking of you. please don't cancel it. you were so excited. i know that it's easy for me, someone who's never had it to say that. i don't blame you for being frightened though. love ya, mardi

Thanks Marty, You are a sweety, please thank you husband again for buying us all dinner.  That was so very kind of him.  I am so glad I got to go and meet everyone, it was definately a terrific trip.  Now if only I could get passed my fear I would be fine for tomorrow. Love ya Hugs Heidi

do you have anything for anxiety to take tonight?

Hi Heidi I was the same way before my plastics in January. Before my gastric I was not at all nervous. Even drove the 2 hours to the hospital but I could not do that before plastics. Try to relax, its not as bad even though it takes longer. Best wishes to you.          Hugs, Betty
