Debbie, watch how you talk to yourself, the thoughts that go on in your head. Refuse to think of anything negative. Replace them with good, positive thoughts! Tell yourself, "What an exciting journey I'm on! What a wonderful chance to start over!" Yeah, it's going to take longer than a surgery, but think of the people that actually look forward to being put under anesthesia! For them it's a positive experience, not a negative one. The pain killers they get after the surgery is also a positive experience for them. Butterflies in the tummy are acceptable, too! Do you remember when a teenager what a neat feeling that was?? LOL

THINK POSITIVE!!
