Sitting in waiting room, slightly freaking out

This had been sure a hard journey , almost 2 years to get here, after road block after road block. Now I'm sitting in the waiting room, excited yet so scared. I hear ppl say they almost walked out, I totally understand why they said that now! My surgery time is 10 am but they had me come in at 5:30 am, so iv got almost 5 hours to sit here and just think . Pray for me y'all.

DreamBig,

I was in your spot 2 days ago. Anxious, nervous, and excited all wrapped together. My surgery was to start at 10:15, then I got pushed back due to a trauma emergency. It made my day even longer. Hang in there, don't be afraid to take pain meds and try to walk. Prayers for everyone who are making these decisions everyday.

Hang in there - these nerves are normal. I also waited by myself (3 hours), and wanted to leave a time or two, but didn't and it was the best decision EVER. It will be over before you know it and all will be well. :)

Good Luck!

45 minutes left! Best, best, best of luck!

Good luck!

Good luck, you will do great and starting the first day of your new life! :-)

By now hopefully your surgery is over and you are sleeping in your room. prayers for your speedy recovery.

Good luck! By this time you're probably already in recovery. You're taking control of your health and your life. You can do this!
