Hi Everyone,
Firstly i'd love to say thankyou to all those people that have written stories about their surgey days, you have no idea how helpful they have been to me. I was scared out of my wit that I am going to die, but after reding about 50 or so stories I feel so much better, I finf myself in tears at night wrrying that I am going to die and leave my husnband and beautiful 6 year old boy alone without me :crying:
I am a big cry baby as it is, the thought opf going to hosptial is scaring me so much. I have never had an operatio before, but Im going to be brave, well try to anyway :laugh:
Its 27 days till my surgery date, I am booked in on may 14th at the Ashford Hospital in Adelaide, with one of the best docotors in Australia.......I dont know why on earth Im worrying....My docotor told me to go on the liqud diet (Optifast) for two weeks prior to my surgery date as he wants me to lose about 3kg before I go under.... I thought I would be a good girl and cut out all the crappy food and softdrinks. and yipeee Ive lost almost 10kg so Im on my way :crying:
Anyway I will stop babbling on and on :rolleyes2:
