Scared

April 1st, 2008

I don’t know why. It’s a simple procedure. I know I’ll be fine. I know that I won’t be waiting on the edge of my seat waiting to get pathology results. But three times in the past two days I’ve had people explained to me what is going to happen tomorrow step by step and every time I think about it, my stomach starts to churn and I want to cry.

I’m being silly. Everything will be fine. I just hate the idea of general anesthesia. Hate hate hate it. It’s the ultimate loss of control. I hate the feeling of closing your eyes in one moment and then opening them feeling like it’s just a second later but really an hour has passed. I’m nervous about being sick after the surgery but they tell me that they will be giving me plenty of anti-nausea medicine before the surgery.

God, I just wish it was over. I hate this waiting.

    Sending prayers your way. it sucks that you have to go through this, but you will be happy to know for sure what is going on.

    Hope you are OK and I can totally relate to your feelings around the general.

    Thinking of you and hoping you are doing OK.
