Tomorrow is finally the day. Going in the morning for my surgery. I'm glad to be having it done, but I've been anxious about it all day today. It's a lot. I'll have two big areas on my head operated on, and a skin graft coming off my thigh. I'm not sure how long I'll be in the hospital afterward. (I haven't been told a whole lot about any of it, oddly.) But I know the anxiety will drop away as soon as I step into the hospital. I don't know why, but that's always how it happens. Somehow, my mind shifts into calm mode as soon as I'm in and the medical folks start doing their thing. But I'm ready to stop watching this shit grow and get on with getting rid of it.
