Upcoming surgery
My surgery is December 4 and I'm feeling kind of
depressed or apprehensive. Did anyone else have these
feelings just prior to surgery? Or is this normal for
any kind of surgery (especially life-changing
surgery)? I've been waiting 6 months for the time to
come and I have thought about it constantly every day
until I think I've lost some enthusiasm. I know I'm
doing the right thing for my health, and when I bend
over to tie my shoes, roll over in the bed, or even
get in my car after rushing around to get dressed, I
remember why I'm doing it. I think I'm mourning the
loss of food already, too. Any suggestions from those
who are post-op?
