I am thinking of you. *hugs* I don’t know what time zone you’re in, but my guess is that as I type this, you’re either in prep, or in surgery. I am thinking of you.

Everything will be all right. This is not minor surgery -- it's a major event for you, both physically and emotionally. It's not surprising that you're worried. You'd be a pretty unfeeling person, and an unfeeling mother, if you weren't worried about what might happen. But you'll be OK. You'll probably feel horrible for a few days after the surgery, but you'll recover. If you have a health food store anywhere near you, you might consider checking for a homeopathic stress remedy called Calms Forte. In small doses, it takes the edge off anxiety; in slightly larger doses, it's a sleep aid. There are no drugs in it at all. I've used it myself, and it really helps during those times when I just can't switch my brain off. My brain keeps going, but my body feels a little less overwrought. I'll be sending good thoughts your way. Yes. Everything will be all right.
