A New Shoulder for Robin

I have to confess to be a real Chicken, not a fan of pain. Which is really weird because I have had chronic shoulder pain for a long time now...many years. I think I am one of those folks who live with the "lets not make anything worse philosophy."
This year I made a commitment to myself to push back against the problems that were being unattended to in my body. My Physical state is starting to look like a fixer upper house. Kinda dilapidated and looking like my shutters are askew.
So, I am having joint replacement surgery on the 19th of this month. I hope that I am doing the right thing, that some suffering will lead to less suffering, and less pain and more range of motion.
Well, I am scared. Frightened about making things worse, but KNOWING that if I do nothing, my Shoulder pain and range of motion will be gtting worse anyway.
So. I would appreciate prayers, Metta, good thoughts, LIGHT and Love sent to me by my on line buddies and friends.
I appreciate ya!

Big HUGS, Robin

Dearest Robin..
You know it wouldn't be right to NOT be fearful...and medical people are notoriously the worst patients! Praying you'll feel so much better post-op that you'll wonder why you put it off...you' re going to be covered with healing thoughts & the prayers of all whose hearts your goodness has touched, including mine. Take care & keep us all posted when you are able.
Love & hugs, Debbie
