My story

I started my journey back in July of this year! I prayed so hard to make sure that I was making the right decision. And after I talked with my doctor and my family, I decided that this was the right thing for me. My surgery is scheduled for September 20, 2016 and I am so excited, but a little nervous too. I have been told that this is normal.

Nerves are definitely normal, along with alternating bouts of euphoria and second thoughts. It's all part of the journey.

Welcome and best wishes as you begin yours. ????

Yes nerves are normal. You are starting your journey and you know some of the things about it but there is still the fear of the unknown. Can I ask you which surgery have you decided on? Everything that you do to get where you are and beyond I can tell you IT IS SO WORTH IT!! Good Luck I hope to follow you thru your journey.
