Fear


So today, I'm just flat out scared. As in WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING? Except I don't use theword 'hell' in my head. I've been reading posts on this great email group I belong to. Some talk about surgery that didn't go as they wanted; they still live with pain. Others say they wish they'd done it sooner. A friend asked, if my pain was excruciating. She's had two knee replacements and they did not go well. How do I stay optimistic and be realistic at the same time? But even as I write this, I know it's important for me to push past my fears. I've made the rational decision. And this is the time. I'm still fairly strong. But I'm in pain. This will allow me to do the things I love.. . right?
