    I was there 3 months ago.

    I was there 3 months ago. Tomorrow is the start of your new life. Wishing you the best, take time to rest after the surgery. Don't rush anything. I'll pray for you. 

    Come back when you feel ok to tell us how it went!

    Prayers and good wishes on

    Prayers and good wishes on the way! Speedy recovery and you'll be so relieved when this is behind you. I also had an open partial and while not the most fun thing in the world it really wasn't as bad as I had feared. Walk as soon as they ask you to and drink tons of water. Don't be afraid to ask for pain killers; those help to get you and keep you moving. Can't walk if in pain. All the best to you.

    Prayers to you! May God guide the doctors'  hands and thoughts as they remove that which hinders and restores that which we need. Prayers for complete physical, psychological, and physical healing to you!  Amen!

    Good luck!

    Put your trust in your surgery team.  The recovery process will suck at first but it will be over before you know it.  Take it slow.  Once the tumor is out you will feel better.  Trust me.

    I was in your position on

    I was in your position on July 9.  In hindsight, I laugh at myself for worrying so much.  This is not to make light of your situation.  We are all different.  By nature, I think I am a tough guy, and I can handle anything.  Boy, was I a blubbering mess 2-3 day before surgery.  The surgery and recovery were a cakewalk compared to the anticipation and fear of the unknown.  I hope yours goes as well as mine did.

    I am praying for your

    I am praying for your complete and quick recovery after your surgery, walk as soon as they ask you, walking can incredibly help your recovery,  don't be shy, if you have any pain, question or request, let them know. You will lose appetite but eat. I complained of dizziness and difficulty sleeping, that was because of loosing blood and general anesthesia and got better within days.  Rest and do what makes you happy  and relaxed after surgery because psychological healing is very important and Influence your physical healing too.

    Get well soon
