Big OP new year !

[dottiedodah]

Absolutely terrified . Operation got put off from October , due to some issues now resolved.Trying not to worry but very difficult.Keep waking up ,heart racing ,or lying awake feeling so scared .Want to enjoy Christmas, but just cant relax! Hystorectemy for suspected Ovarian cancer . family and hubby are supportive (Hes had cancer but thankfully all clear) Just want to enjoy Christmas (usually love it) just a feeling of dread ,and dark thoughts if the worst outcome .(Not really a voting question ) just really love to hear any comments at all

It seems shitty that the diagnosis will only be confirmed once you've had the operation, but presuming they'll send a sample for histology while you are on table. That will determine the extent they need to extend the margins to clear.
Nothing we can say will stop you worrying, but I hope that once crimble really picks up, you'll be swept up and have at least an hour or two where it isn't at the forefront of your mind.
Those of us who have been in your position will have everything crossed for you.
Sending warm, positive vibes

Jemenfous37 Thank you .I feel with keeping busy it helps a little .As soon as I stop it hits me .However I have my Adult Son staying over for Christmas and our friend will cook our Christmas Dinner. DH and DD as well .Off to our Nieces for Boxing Day with 2 little ones will be fun .Went for Christmas meal yesterday with my friend .Today a bit quieter. DS back this WE as well .Really wish could have had OP by now ,but as you say hopefully this should take my mind off for a bit! Thank you for your warm wishes it helps a lot x Seems to be worse at nights !

Talking to family may also help, and I know this happening to you, but does your DH have support too?
Mulled wine by the vat will work wonders too!😜

Jemenfous37 Mulled wine by the vat sounds great! DH hasnt got support as such, although his Sister who has also had Cancer has been very good .Seems ok to manage when busy . Just want to have a good time for a few days .I am going to stock up on the Baileys as well!
