The Lump

I'm having surgery in the morning. Even though I know I'm okay, I'm still scared.

I think it's just human nature to be scared, or to think the worst. How do you go into a surgery that could be life changing and not have fears?

Here I sit at 1:00 am, worried and thinking about my kids, and I have to leave in four hours, and we have a long drive ahead of us. .... and I still have to sleep.

I'm having a lumpectomy in my breast. Simply enough said. I'll be okay! I have to be .... I'm a Mom. A million thoughts have gone through my head. A million reassurances from myself are bouncing back .... but still, I'm uneasy.

It will be a simple surgery .... then a seven day wait .... then I'll breathe a lot easier! If only I didn't have the wait ..... sigh.
