IN NEED OF ENCOURAGEMENT

I guess this is going to be some kind of journey.  I am talking to more and more people about the surgery and I am not so sure that is a good idea.  The last two people I spoke to had success stories and stories of fatalities.  I guess they were doing me some good in telling me but now I am more nervous than ever.  I don't think that I would be the one God would take out of so many survivors, my faith is stronger than that but I just want to be sure the procedure I choose is the best one for me.  Originally, I wanted the sleeve, but Dr. V wants me to do the actual bipass and I'm not sure I want to do that.  I need some more feedback on who had what done and what were the reasons behind the choices or recommendations from the doctor.  I know after the holidays, its on and popping in terms of finalizing the pre-op appointments, so I need to be sure about everything from here on out.
