My surgery....
23
Wed, 09-01-2004 - 3:30pm
The V.A. called to reschedule my surgery from this friday to September 10th.

I am not sure if that is good or bad. I have been trying to prepare myself for this Friday and now another week of worry and illness. Ughhhh.

This has me so afraid. As some of you know I do not react well to anesthesia. They have promised that I will have a machine to keep me breathing and that if something goes wrong I would probably be on a ventilator for a couple of days. After which the Dr. followed that sentence up with, "No big deal." AAARRRGGHHHH!!!!!

Thank you all for the well wishes for this friday. I hope it won't be asking to much to ask for more positive thoughts next friday. I am really afraid to do this. But it seems that it must be done.

Thanks, and I hope everyone is having a good day.

Laurie

I haven't felt very well today so I did not get to spend time online.

I want everyone to know how comforting it is just knowing you are out there wishing me angels and positive thoughts.

I know I need to have this surgery so that I can start getting better.

Loubie, it was very encouraging to read about you and your surgery. I told my g/f about all of you and she thanks you too. I will read these posts before going to the hospital on Friday.

Thank you all so much for being here and being you.

Hugs, hugs, hugs,

Laurie

Hi Cat,

My g/f said sure she will post under my name to let you know. That way you will recognize the name. If you do not hear anything that will mean a problem as she will stay at the hosp. with me.

Thank you for asking and I keep calling your angels close to me. I really do believe in angels by the way.

Thank you for sending them.

Sometimes I get so involved in my own worries that I forget to think of those things. Angels, etc.

Hugs, Laurie

How cute!!! And very cozy looking. Thank you.

I think I said earlier that I will read this thread before leaving for my surgery. I think it will give me a positive mind going in.

Thank you everyone.

Well, I was thinking of you all day friday as I said (all my prayers and positive thougts), and I came in tonight to see if there was any news. But that's okay hun, I've still got plenty of karma left for next friday. I'm sorry that you're feeling so anxious over this, I know that can't be good for your mind. But from the responses you've recieved from this thread, at least you know that you have a bundle of loving friends pulling for ya! xo.
