Here I Go Again (Scared)

:(Here I go again. I am scheduled to be sleeved on July 10th... Meaning 6 more days. Im happy with my decision but i am also scared out of my mind (I tend to think the bad out of everything that happens). I for one do not like being put to sleep. Fear of not waking up or dying. Does this mean I need to cancel or just not do this at all because I am having doubts. Any support and or feedback would be greatly appreciated :unsure:

I understand your fears, I too have little ones, my youngest isn't even a year old. I know there are risks, but I also know that I need to do this. It's hard to stand by that however when I am writing out a living will ect ect

I want to be prepared for anything but I expect to be fine. And in the end I will be a whole new momma for my kids :)

thank being said, I still feel that rising fear every day that inches closer to surgery, I am thankful that I am not the only one!!

best of luck to you, don't doubt yourself and why you started down this road in the first place
