Boy the time went fast

So here we are.  Its June 1...the day before my surgery.  Oh boy.  I called admissions and I am to report in at 8:30 AM - my surgery will start at 11:30 AM.  It is suppose to last about 100 minutes so I will be in recovery by 2 PM.  Now that I have a time frame I will admit that I am a little freaked out.  I had surgery to remove tonsils when I was a kid but after waking up I had very little pain.  I think its the pain and the size of scar that scares me the most.  I will be marked for life on one of the most visible parts of my body.  I shouldn't worry about that though, at least the lump will be gone.  I am truly thankful that once healed, there will be no more worries...no worries of radiation therapy, chemotherapy, additional surgeries.  So what if my voice weakens, people get bored when i talk anyway, so its no loss.

In 24 hours I will be done.  Wish me luck.
