Anticipation, Anticipation Is Making Me Wait. It's Keeping Me Waaaaaaitin'


Last night I dreamt that my Dr. completely forgot about me and my surgery. He left me sitting in the OR for hours on end. They finally sent me home and I had to reschedule and they put me out another month. I woke up in a panic and didn't sleep well after that. The anticipation is KILLING me!! I need this to be done and over with!!

Kristina-
It's March 26th. I am scared to death but I also can't wait for it to be done and over. It seems to be consuming my mind constantly.

I can't wait until this is all over for you. I've had dreams like this in the past over other things and they are so terrible! 10 days isn't long. Well, it is, but it isn't.

I hope it gets here fast and your recovery is swift! Hugs!

I hope it comes and goes quickly and easily. I will keep you in my prayers.

Kristen said...

I wish you the best with the surgery. I hope the recovery is faster then the waiting

I sure hope they get to it quickly! I know the waiting is hard.

Just SO said...

They say that the waiting was hard. I'm sorry that it's so hard. I wish there was something I could do.

Man...I'm sure this is the worst part, because you don't really know what to expect. Hang in there! It will be here more quickly than you know!

Jo said...

Waiting for anything is less than fun, waiting for something horrible is the worst! Sorry this is so dreadful.
Am I the only one who thinks the picture is, ahem...? Too many years as a midwife perhaps...

Ashlee said...

I know the waiting it hard, but the end result will be worth it!

Jillene said...

Jo-
HAHAHA!! What are you trying to say? That the picture look like a hoo-haw?! hehe!!

I am so sorry this is so hard on you. I will be praying for you to get through this as quickly as possible.

i love that poster!

i know what you mean, the waiting is the worst.

rachel said...

I wish you the best Jillene! Sorry it's been awhile- I've had a hard time keeping up with blogging lately.
Waiting is the worst. When I had my gallbladder out, they wheeled me into the hallway and left me there in front of the staff breakroom (can you believe it????) I was there for over an hour in my hospital gown, not eating for 24 hours and waving at the people eating their lunch and fully clothed. Good luck with everything :)

Jillene said...

Rachel-
Holy Crap!! I think that I would have had a few "choice" words for them!! And don't feel bad that it's been a while--I didn't even get to look at blogs let alone read them on Thurs, Fri., Sat., or Sun. Booooo to 5 people fighting over the computer!!

Lee said...

You'll be okay Jillene, and once it's over your life will be so much easier. :)

It is amazing how much what we dream can effect us. Hang in there.

Karies place said...

Looks like you already have a lot of followers, but I just wanted to say hi. Good luck with your surgery. Oh, I'm also LDS. :)

heather said...

What a terrible dream! I hate waiting for things like that too. In fact, I had to do a little of waiting myself lately. I pretty much plunged myself into the Harry Potter movies and then when I had watched all those I picked up a couple of the books to re-read, because those seem to be a really good escape for me. :) HEY it kills that time that I would otherwise spend in an anxious state of pacing.

Torina said...

I know EXACTLY how you feel. I hope the next ten days RACE by and that you get some anti-anxiety drugs as soon as you go in for the procedure.

Melissa said...

I know just how you feel. With just having been through major surgery last month...and the next procedure luming ahead....

The wait it torture. Hope the rest of the week flys buy for you girl.

Sorry about your dreams. I hope it goes well next week. It is not easy to wait for surgery. You'll be in my prayers.

Kirsty said...

Oh lovie, the waiting is KILLER!!! I hope you manage to sleep well from here on in, and that the time goes oh so fast for you:)

Oh, March 26th. The date should be here before you know it.

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well!

I, too, am hoping you can hurry up and get this over with.

P.S. Thanks so much for the vicks on the feet tip. I've done that before and know it works but I left my brain in NYC. Thank you for being my brain. I need all the help I can get!

tiki_lady said...

OH no!! It's anxiety! When I had first married Mr. Incredible I had to go see his family doctor so I could have my first FEMALE EXAM! The man was older than the hills and I was petrified!

I dreamt that he croaked right between my legs! Nice, huh? LOL
good luck the waiting will soon be over.

Oh that's a scary dream. Yikes.

Good luck with everything! I know it is difficult, but please try to take it extremely easy after your surgery. My aunt is having to have hers again because she didn't. Once is bad enough! Best of luck to you :)
