Q: Jenny's Surgery
asked by: Zanny on January 7th, 2008
Supporter
Hey again guys.

It's Jenny's operation on wednesday & today it finally hit me. She was crying & I was cuddling her & trying to settle her.. & I suddenly started crying my eyes out too. I know it's hardly major surgery, but there's a risk with any general anaesthetic & the fact that this op is technically "unnecessary" just makes it even worse. If anything happened to her it would be my fault for choosing to go ahead with it. I'm sorry, I sound stupid.. but it's just how I feel right now.

Any support would be greatly appreciated.

Oh & I just want to apologise now if I've missed any important posts.. I'm not able to get on the internet very much these days so if I haven't replied then I'm sorry & I hope you understand. You know I love you guys.

You and Jenny are definitely in my prayers. I'm not exactly what the surgery is, but I'm sure you would only do it if you thought it was what's best for you. There is no doubt that you love that little girl with all of your heart. But, don't go in thinking it would be your fault. You wouldn't allow harm to come to her. She'll be fine. Soon you will be holding her in your arms and this will be a distant memory.

She'll thank you when she's older. Everything will be fine. I feel your upset though. I would be too. We don't like seeing our kids in pain.

Good luck.....I will keep you and Jenny in my thoughts:) I am sure that everything will be fine, it is natural for a mommy to be scared when it comes to our babies.

Aww, Zan you guys will be in my thoughts! I can't imagine how scary this must be for you. But once Jenny comes out from surgery you'll feel much better. Give Jenny hugs from us!

she was born with an extra thumb and they wanted to wait until after her 1st birthday to remove it.

Thank you so much guys.. I'll let you know how it all goes.

Sorry to those who didn't know what the surgery was for, I should have explained in my original post. Yep, tomorrow she'll have 10 fingers just like everybody else.
