So...... I will be having surgery. In fact, it will be happening this Thursday December 13. Just about 3 years from the day I had my lumpectomy. More complications from the cancer. Even after you are declared in remission things crop up.
I will be having a complete hysterectomy, but they will be able to do it laparoscopically. That should cut down on the recovery time.
I'm not too anxious about the surgery, just the craziness of the pre-operation preparation. They wanted to do the surgery in January, but I'm directing a musical and asked to wait until March. They said that would not be good because I need to be back on the cancer med that keeps the chances of my breast cancer returning lower. So.... Christmas it is!
My shopping is done, so that helps.
The thing that bothers me the most is my pity party attitude. I'm tired and weary from these last three and a half years. My mind, body, and spirit have been through enough. Then I look around and realize there are a lot of people who have it worse than me and I feel guilty for feeling this way.
I have to acknowledge these feelings and move them on. "The only way out is through".
Please say a prayer or send good vibes on Thursday, for Mark to be able to deal with me, for my recovery, and for an easier road to walk(for a little while at least!)
Sending lots of prayers and hugs your way!
