..stupid question I know but ....I just got my approx date ..the hospital called to see if I would be available for the end of Aug ..I've been waiting so long I'd almost forgotten about it ..after reading all the posts about Ross and other people I have to question whether I really need to put myself though this ..I still have a good quality of life ...okay I get tired and sometimes breathless ..but hey better than a lot of folk ...I work full time and look after a three kid household (ok ..so the hubby helps LOL) and I have a full social life ...I have not told my hubby that the hospital called yet ..I'm going to let him have this one week of holiday and golf ..and I have some serious thinking to do ..I called my cardio and she is too phone me back on Tuesday and I hope to discuss with her whether I can delay for a few yrs ...a lifetime delay would be my option ..I find it hard to make an informed decision as the surgeon and the cardio gave such two different reasons for having this op ..the cardio said it was to give me a longer life and the Surgeon said it was to be done by the end of the yr ..or else ...this will be surgery number 4 for me although I had the others as a kid ...it is not easy to go into hospital to put yourself through months of feeling awful ...
am I alone here ..anyone else feel like I do ?...maybe I'm being a coward ..but I can't help it ...sorry to be so downbeat ..
