Re: Starting WBR tomorrow...nervous & scared
Well, your first mistake was reading on other boards!!
Seriously, I can imagine the anxiety you must be feeling right now, the anticipation. Usually that is worse than the actual event.
The first day of any new thing is full of uncertainty. I remember that the cancer center psychologist told me that as soon as my first treatment started it would feel "like a balloon had been pricked and all the anxiety poured out" Once the ball is rolling, it was better.
Reading your signature, you have been through ALOT. And you DID get through it all. You are an amazing person. You did it one day at a time. One proceedure at a time. And you will do it again. We will be in the room with you. Keep the faith
