And, boy, do I understand much of what you are feeling. And I admire your courage in putting it all down for us to read.<BR/>I hope you will explore your options for surgery, and you know I'll be praying for you(in my own odd way!)<BR/>Love, MargoMagogo's Musings, toohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09282188854825790599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19022044.post-1157352094613845142006-09-04T02:41:00.000-04:002006-09-04T02:41:00.000-04:00Aww, Becky.

I echo the others that you're being too tough on yourself here on the family issues, but I do think it's good that you recognize that <I>some</I> of it is your brain being...unhelpful. <BR/><BR/>On the surgery, I suspect that the fear of the unknown is getting yo you more than the feel of the semi-known would. Meetwith the doctors. Write down your questions. Better yet, print out the relevant parts of this entry and make them read it. That will help them understand and respond to your concerns.<BR/><BR/>Whatever you do, do SOMETHING. Don't put it off through sheer avoidance.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there. You'll be in my prayers.<BR/><BR/>(And now, since I'mso far behind in my blog reading, I get to see what, if anything you've done about the situation since writing this.)Karen Funk Blocherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860091802901743222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19022044.post-1157115012345078002006-09-01T08:50:00.000-04:002006-09-01T08:50:00.000-04:00So sorry that you are going though this extreme p...So sorry that you are going though this extreme pain, mentally and physically.

There comes a point where we have the right to just flat out be honest about our feelings. How people react is their issue, not ours. I'm working at coming to that place now, and it's very freeing. And she's right; we are worth it. You most especially.<BR/><BR/>Kisses to Ty.jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06495025947391158651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19022044.post-1156804260065355962006-08-28T18:31:00.000-04:002006-08-28T18:31:00.000-04:00Hugs from out here.
