Count down to surgery
I’ve always looked forward to new adventures and or changes in my life. How do I prepare for coming home knowing I’ll be missing a part of me? I’m a size 18 mother of a 5 year old son and am loved by my fiancé for who I am. I’m worried how this might change me.

Cancer or death doesn't frighten me but the thought of not being there for my son and not watching him grow is unfathomable. I want to lose my shit and fall into a heap and cry but it doesn't happen.
