And I'm so nervous! I am not scared to die just scared that if I do, my kids will be alone. My kids are scared especially my daughter and I don't know how to comfort them. Any ideas of what I can say that will calm them down??

You will be fine, Trust GOD!!!

Good luck! You will do great! Don't be nervous. This is the first step toward. New healthier life!

Pray for them!! I have felt fear literally melt away in prayer!!!

You will do just fine and your kids will have a awesome new Mom soon - We all have pulled thru the surgery, there are literally thousands of people a day who have this surgery. Good luck and see you on the other side

Thank you all! Surgery was postponed until next week. When I got to the hospital i was pale, shaking and faint....the blood work showed I was too anemic to have surgery and needed a blood transfusion instead. So in a few days I'll be having those butterflies all over again!
