In fact, I have been depressed all day. I woke up at 2:00 this morning terrifed and I could not shake the horrible feeling. I finally went ahead I got up, but unfortunately, I could not go through with the surgery and I called and canceled. I feel like a complete failure and have let mysef now. I worked so hard to get here just to let my my feeling and nerves get the best of me. Dr. R is a wonderful doctor and I am very sad that I didn't have the guts to go through with knowing what I would have achieved if had followed through. I really have let myself down. All the wonderful e-mails I have read about your successes, I really thought I would be one of you, but I failed! >> Dear Joyce, You haven't failed. Trusting yourself to know when and if a HUGE step like major surgery is right is a very good thing. You'll know when the right time comes to do this - or not. But no one on this list - especially Dr. Rutledge - thinks you've failed. Please keep posting. You've been such a great contributor to this list. xoxo Blair MGB 8/9/00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
