Mourning

[alobri 73]

I was waiting patiently for my surgery date and when I got the call I was super excited to hear that my insurance is covering everything . I will be indeed getting my surgery on 8/20th. Today I am feeling super depressed, wanting to cry my eyes out. Is this normal? Has anyone else gone through this?!

Do you think its just nervousness for the surgery? Or is it the realization of everything coming to fruition? Sometimes people cannot comprehend the idea of their life changing in such a vast way, its like what do you do when all your dreams come true? You keep dreaming right? Set new goals, that way you feel like you have something to work towards. Good luck dear I'm sure everything will work out great!

I think it's stress relief. I was crying as they were wheeling me into the operation room.

I felt incredible peace, I knew that this body, this life was was temporary and soon I would be free.

But that's not to say that what your feeling isn't normal. We all go through mourning at some point. I think for a lot if us mourning happens in the first month. When all sorts of other "fun" things are happening! We all get hit with just how much food meant to us, yes we are all fat and food tastes good (duh)

But food was so much more, it soothed our hurts, it helped us Celebrate our happy times, it was our late night friend. It never judged us or let us down..

After surgery we don't have our friend our confidant to lean on anymore. We are left to navigate our feelings on our own.

Mourning... Yes we all mourn, it just sounds like your ahead of the curve.

I am anticipating the same. Just to think about it I get teary eyes.
