I'm out....

After almost 1 year of doctors appt. Etc I was approved by insurance, my surgery day set for march 15, I don't feel ready. I'm scared, I can't take days off, I'm thinking I should try yet another diet. My husband really doesn't like the idea of surgery, neither my family. I have 2 young kids. And I'm scared to die or be miserable the rest if my life. So I'll call the Doctor in Monday to tell them I need more time to think about this. Little voice in my heart tell me to wait.

    Thank you! It's my decision. It's more like a bad feeling about the surgery. I prayed a lot about this and I don't feel ready. I admire everyone for their courage and determination.

  • Maybe postpone your date and give yourself more time to think and to prepare your family and line up since care. March 15th is actually two months away! I have a 4 year old and I was terrified of dyin
