2. My bladder falls out when I go to the bathroom
3. My husband finds me less desirable
4. I will go crazy from lack of hormone
5. I will grown hair on my face
6. my husband will forget to pick me up from the hospital.
7. My teenage daughter will fight with her little brother 24 hours a day. ( She has to take care of him for me.) They fight constantly!
8. I get an infection from my cat's hair getting on my incision.
9. I will gain weight
10. I will sink into this big depression and never return.
11. My husband will hate the new inside feeling of me with having sex.

Keeping me alive...
You HysterSisters are the best!
This hysterical thread has been cracking me up all morning.
I am 20 minutes away from starting my bowel prep, and I am actually not so scared thanks to you guys. I would also like to add a number 11 to my list--waking up during surgery or being able to feel it. I don't care if I have to be bashed over the head with frying pan to get me all the way out, just please don't let me wake up!
Let's hear some more lists!
