One Week

My surgery is one week from today.  I'm definitely starting to get nervous.

For starters, I've never had any type of surgery before.  The anesthesia scares me, the breathing tube scares me, the fact that so many things could go wrong scares me.  But the thing I'm most afraid of has nothing to do with what the doctors do to me.  I'm terrified that I'm going to come out of the surgery and be told that my chances of ever having children are null.  That would be absolutely devastating.

I'm trying to not focus on that.  I'm trying to keep myself relaxed, because stress hikes up my pain level, and I've run out of my bath soak.

Trying to keep my head up and stay positive... 7 days to go.
