What should I expect from cancer surgery? I'm scared and anxious

Feeling scared before surgery is completely natural, and these anxious thoughts are something many people in this community understand. Consider writing down specific questions or concerns to discuss with your surgical team - they can walk you through what to expect and help ease some of that mental spinning by giving you concrete information about your procedure.

Talk to God. Give your worries to him and He’ll give you peace to get through this

Dear Monique, the first person that you will need to have patience and compassion for is yourself. They will try to make you as comfortable as they can but most of your recovery will need to come from you. Being patient with yourself and having realistic expectations for the things you will be able to achieve is in itself a milestone. Prayer is a form of meditation and I am so grateful and appreciative that I got a second chance. 🙏God bless
