I've gotten approved for my surgery and now im so afraid I'm a single mom of 3, and i don't want to leave them behind



Recommended Posts

I'm also a single mom. Two days pre-op I spent about 8 hours bawling while writing my 'if you're reading this then something went very wrong' letters....I have since shredded them cuz, well, drama much??? In reality the chances of me dying from complication from obesity are much higher than dying from surgery....but you couldn't tell me that on that night!!! It's scary, but chances are you'll do fine and be a healthier, happier mom for your babies :). Good luck!!!

I am scared. I don't have a good track rec under the knife or anesthesia. Seems like something always happens. I am a worrier and though I know statistics, they haven't been on my side before. I can only beg God to bring me through Surg and have no post-Surg life endangering complications..... And I can ask for prayers from all of u, real quick. I know u all are very busy, but I hope u can. :-) God Bless.
