Scary surgery..hard time..

Posted on 10/09/08, 12:46 am
I am having back surgery next week that will put me out for a while. I am a very busy stay at home mom and being down this long is going to kill me. I am getting very depressed , and scared having to deal with the hospital asking me if I have a medical directive or medical power of attorney if anything goes wrong. Having a spinal fusion and scared of being paralyzed. My stepfather passed away, but he had a spinal cord injury and ended up being paralyzed so I got to see what he went thru and I do NOT WANT to be that way. Please any comments or prayers would be great to keep me positive.
