If it makes you feel any better I had a practical mental breakdown right before surgery. Every single bad thought possible went though my head.

Will I make it?

What if they can't do it?

What will happen if..if..if

The list goes on for miles.

So I came here, to this forum and everyone picked me up and helped me like they are helping you. If you have certain fears, post it! There is no dumb question. We have all been there. I think you are ready, you are just scared. And that is ok. I cried days before mine because I had never had surgery before and it terrified me.

And look at me now, 112 pounds down, I climbed to the top of waterfalls on sunday! THAT, is why you want to do this. You want to LIVE
