    Well, technically she should be. But I wanted to hear the details as to what is bothering her so I could maybe give her advice and help calm her nerves.

    Hey, it's nervous to feel scared! I wasn't as scared because I have this mentality that everything will be ok. I don't know why I think this way, but I'm beginning to just accept it as a part of my personality, lol.

    When you go in to the hospital the morning of your surgery, you will probably be more nervous than ever. But, they will give you a shot called Versed that makes pretty much all of your worries disappear. It calms you, makes you drowsy, and it's kinda funny. I laughed a lot when they gave it to me, lol! You will do great! If you need any advice, or are just having a freak out, and need someone to talk to, you can definitely message me. :)

    Heck yeah, 20 days left I get more nervous as the days pass. I know this is what I want and I know that if I don't just do it and get it over with now I will somehow talk myself out of it.
