Surgery in a week. PLZ help.

Tue, 08/29/2006 - 17:12
I am having surgery to remove a 7-8 mm tumor or lesion in my right Temporal lobe next Weds. I have had an increbidly positive attitude about the situation but now I am starting to get a little scared. I guess I am worried b/c I am a Senior in college and just started my second to last semester 2 weeks ago and am hoping to complete it after going through with this. I was told I would be good to go in a month, is that about right? I see alot of problems listed on here that ppl have encountered, I am just looking for something positive but I want to know the truth also. Thanks in advance!
