I was a ball of nerves up until the day before. Then a calm anxious came over me. I was nesting like crazy before that. I hope you can have the calm going into it.

Kennie hopefully it will all go by fast. You have lest the 4 days to get through. Maybe not getting no sleep the nite before might be a blessing. You will be so tired the time you are taken back that you will have no choice but to relax. Stay strong and focused.

Kennie,

I'll hope and pray that the next four days go by quickly for you. Just try to keep a positive outlook and get as much rest as you can so you know that you are in the best possible shape for the surgery...

Chin up, girlfriend!

Default Kennie,

My prayers and thoughts are with you. I just had my surgery last Monday and I know the anxiety. I was a mess the day before but when I got to the hospital I found myself still anxious but I also had a calmness. Hang in there. Take some deep breathes and say some prayers for yourself, too.
