Super Bummed....surgery Cancelled



Recommended Posts

Wow...I really admire your resolve! I have seriously been a puddle of goo these past few days. It takes so much strength to remain positive at this massive disappointment. But' date=' we CAN do it, and we WILL do it! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />[/quote']

Well.......I will probably be a puddle of goo in a day or so. This all happened today. I went from 13lbs down in 12 days (on liquids) to......you possibly need a blood transfusion, cancel your surgery, and your seeing a hematologist tomorrow!!! If it weren't for this forum and my family I might just crawl into bed with a cheesecake and not resurface for the next year. I just have always been of the belief that everything happens for a reason and there must have been some obstacle or hurdle that would have been to great for me to overcome no matter how ready I was. So another force (I happen to call him God) intervened to ensure I have the best chance at success. That's the only way I will get through this huge disappointment. My sister has called me 5 or 6 times already asking if I'm really ok. She had this done over 4 years ago and she is so upset knowing how far I've come to have it pulled out from under me this late. She's been willing me for 12 days not to cheat on liquids and helping me through. So after the last call she said "why are you still talking to me, I would have already eaten everything in the house! Go eat something!!" :). It'll just become a peace you feel when you accept this was not your time and it's for reasons we may never see (I'm not quite there, but the process of sharing my disappointment and telling everyone has been therapeutic so far).
