scared

[sghatl 2]

Just got back from my pre-op with the plastic surgeon. After signing and initialling 25 pages of precautions, warnings and possible surgical risks, I should have just run out the door. It is really scary to undergo something like this - 6 hours of surgery is not something to sneeze at. I have to have the hernial repair so I might as well get the PS at the same time. Looks like I will be laid up for quite a while aferwards, drains could be in for months or weeks - no way to predict. Healing will take at least a year. Did I say I am scared. This too shall pass.

Oh Shirley . . . that is a HUGE undertaking . . . but like everything else you have done. . . you will bounce back faster than you think! My thoughts are with you . . . and can you even imagine how great you are going to look afterwards? It does take awhile . . . from what I've heard . . . but you will be doing great - especially once those drains get out!

When is the surgery?

Hugs to you . . . keep us posted! I don't check in here very much anymore because no one is ever around - but I'll be thinking of you for sure!
