I know it's scary. And I bet anything you WILL be fine. If you can relax just a bit you will thank yourself so much later on. Honest.

Chrissy,

It is perfectly normal to be feeling so nervous. This is major surgery. It is not something to be taken lightly.

Having said that, I had a 10cm cyst on my left ovary, with indications of borderline cancer, and it was all fine.

Just keep reading and posting. You will find a lot of good information here; as well as ladies kind enough to share their personal experiences.

It's wonderful you will have your grandparents to help you for 3 weeks. You are very lucky!

Hang in there, hon! We're all here for you.

Hi Chrissy,

I'm also a 1/16 date, and in PA (Pottstown). I'm getting nervous too, but we'll get through it together! Take care, I'll be thinking of you.
