Jeanne hun its ok to be scared,I am scared to(I have my surgery on August 22 to),but personally if we were not scared about this surgery(any surgery really)I do not think it would be normal.If anyone has told you there not scared I think is stretching the truth a bit.So guess what we are NORMAL....lol.Its going to be ok because we are having this surgery so we can have a healthy life again,and I know that your excited to,I am also.I just can`t wait until I am free of all my medical problems and to just simply feel good from day to day,so I know that we are ready to start living a life we have been wanting for so long,and I know we are worth it!!!!!!I will be thinking of you and praying with you on August 22 the start of our journey and our speedy recovery and then on to our healthy lives forever...your friend for life....Renee
