less than 24 hrs til surgery and the nerves have set in.....

So tomorrow is finally the day. As expected, I am nervous and excited all at once. I know what a good decision I have made for myself and I am fortunate to have the best, most supportive husband and family that a girl could ask for (and one daughter is a nurse, and the other a dietician). .....BUT......there is always a but, isnt there?
As I mentioned before, my husband and I have had 7 deaths in the family in the last year and he also had a bad experience with anesthesia after a simple outpatient procedure so all of that has me feeling more than the usual pre-surgery jitters.
I thought I was doing fine but then yesterday as I was chit-chatting with my hubby, I just burst into tears for no apparant reason. It was just awful and I couldnt stop crying. I was so exhausted after that cry but I felt alot better at the same time if that makes any sense......
Anyway, I just ask that you all keep me in your thoughts tommorrow as I take MY TURN at the bat and Ill see you all on the other side :)

You will be thought of and prayed for! I have my surgical consult this coming Friday and am nervous myself to finally get that "date" sealed in my future. It's been a long road this last year, going through all the classes and appts. needed to get to this point but i Know that this is the right decision for me. Surgery is scarey but i am more scared of my future if i don't get off this health path.... Good Luck and safe surgery!

((Hugs)) to you. I went through the same thing, and even as I was laying on the OR table with the oxygen mask on me I was thinking, "I can still stop this. I don't have to go through with this." But I did go through with it, and so far everything is going great. You'll be fine, too.
