Guest guest Posted September 7, 2001 Report Share Posted September 7, 2001 >>>>Kathy says, Hi Everyone, My surgery is coming up in 8 days and I can't sleep and I am getting very nervous I am not afraid of the surgery I am afraid of the afterwards....>>>>>> ===================================================================== hi Kathy, My surgery is on monday,so I know how you feel. I'm not so nervous about the surgery itself, but I'm a bit afraid of the pain and readjusting my eating/bathroom habits. When the fears hit me I immediately tell myself to think of the outcome of the surgery. I picture myself thin (hard to do since I was NEVER thin) and doing all the things i can't do or have problems doing now. I also take a couple of deep breaths and remember that the pain is only temporary, but my great new life will be forever! Good Luck to you! see you on the switched side soon! denise in ny 4 days and counting! _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
