Surgery is tomorrow AND....

My surgery is in the morning and not only can I believe it's finally here but it sorta snuck up on me! At first I was so excited and I still am but after reading so many things about complications..even though I know everyone's outcome is different....I'm still freakin out! Some uplifting words of encouragement is really needed right now!
