Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Hi There I have not posted for quite some time. To be honest I was getting myself really freaked out reading about the stuff that " can " happen and I just decided to back away for a bit. I had the opportunity to visit with someone who had the surgery last year and she was able to expel most of my fears. I have my surgery date scheduled for September 14th. I am excited to get this on the go, heal and be done. Have a great day!! Tanja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Like Tanja , I have backed off for a while. I have a surgery date of Sept 8.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Bob, The best advice I could give you would be to just take it one day at a time: one appointment, one procedure, one recovery day. I had my surgery on the 5th. Just prior I went through periods where I was terrified and then in total denial. Finding somewhere in the middle is probably the best way to go. Hang in there ... deep breaths! Best wishes, Carol > > Hi There > > I have not posted for quite some time.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Thank you Carol for your kind words... Everything will work out just fine and if something comes up I will just have to deal with it. From speaking with the girl who had her surgery here last year, she was told that the people who go into the surgery with the most positive attitude usually make out the best. So, I have a few months to stay positive and just relax about the whole thing. I mean it is only 6 weeks....and the results will be worth it I am sure. Take care Tanja > > Hi There > > I have not posted for quite some time.
