Nervous

My surgery is in 8 days, and I can't help but go back and forth with the positive out comes just as much as the negative ones. Will my father say "I told you so" when I'm having my rough days ? I have never had a surgery before and this one is major. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers everyone ????

Hi there

My surgery is May 6th and Im nervous too, but I know that my life now, well, its no life at all - I am invisible to the opposite sex and I hate what I see in the mirror - I am doing a degree in psychology, I graduate this year, I learnt about self fulfilling prophecy - basically, if you truly believe you are ugly unconciously every thing you do will fulfil that belief. So, our fear, if we go into surgery believing there will be problems and have negative thoughts unconciously we will attract those negative vibes, (all about the laws of attraction, the secret is based on it) . What Im trying to say, is I know that you have to believe you are going to change your life, the day of surgery is your first day of life, you are a born again human being - There wont be bad days, just some days wont be as great as others, but never bad :) Keep in touch with me, I will motivate you, it will do me good :) xxxx

I'm just over 48 hours away. The nerves are starting to creep in. But I keep telling myself I have done other things in my life that made me nervous or things that scared me. So this too will be fine. I have 2 kids and I remember how scary that was at the time. So I'm trying to look at this in that same way.

Best wishes to all!!
