Re: To All the May Surgery Buddies

[Guest guest]

Hi Katja,

Thanks for the support! I think it was Carol today, and then me next

(Saturday), and I'm not sure about next week??

I love having a place like this board, I seriously do. It's so

comforting to hear from people who've survived! Yes, I'm getting

nervous, can you tell??

Thanks again

I'll be leaving my house in about 15 minutes to go to the hospital.

By 12 my surgery should be underway. I'm terrified ... but I'm

breathing slowly and deeply, thinking positive, telling that panic

attack NO WAY! and finding my happy place. Flying among the clouds

high over the treetops on a beautiful sunny day. (Oh yeah ... and

eating a ham sandwich with lettuce on white bread!!!)

You guys have been THE BEST! I promise to be in touch when I get

home and hopefully share some good news.

Tarryn - I'm not coming home until Saturday - so if our paths cross,

know I'll be thinking about you and sending you happy thoughts!

All my best,

Carol
