My surgery has been scheduled for July 25th....I am excited, scared, hopeful and starting to doubt myself...but then I read the wonderful posts and support that is provided on OH and I know I am not alone in how I am feeling.

Thank you all for sharing, supporting and advising...I'm gonna take it one step at a time and try not to freak out (to much) before or after surgery. Special thanks to the "vets" for helping  and supporting all of us as we begin our journey to the loser's bench!!

Everything you are feeling is normal. We all go through it. You will even wonder if there is a chance you can do this without surgery.  If you could have, you would have. Hang in there. One thing that really helped me prepare was to read a lot about other people's experinces. I can honestly say I had no surprizes and felt exactly the way I expected to feel. If you like, you can read my blog and she what my experince has been like. It will give you a sense of what to expect.
