Sitting in the hospital bed with my gown on

It's starting to hit me and I'm freaking out.

I hate the unknown.

The thought of being put under and cut open. [emoji20]

Any encouragement will be super appreciated.

Hello

It is normal to feel what you feeling. Don't worry you will be ok. You Will be put to sleep quickly and most likely it will be laparoscopic surgury and you will heal quickly. Say a prayer and be positive. Best feeling luck ?????

Thanks everyone I really appreciate it! I am in holding now and they are taking me back soon. Still pretty nervous.


You'll be fine! It can be a crappy feeling when you wake up but it does get better, so don't get discouraged. I'm sure you're in good hands. Follow your doc & nurses advice and you'll be back to normal before you know it. Good luck!
