Jessica, No, you don't sound crazy, you sound like a normal person, worrying about your mortality, which is what we all do when we face uncertainty. There is a risk to this surgery, and unless you can face it and accept it, you would be crazy. Only you can decide, and it's tough, I've been there, but I can tell you that it's safer having the surgery before you develop all the comorbidities associated with being obese, and knowing the risks, you can come out of surgery doing all the right things to avoid blood clots (deep breathing exercises immediately, walking immediately, drinking as much water as you can as soon as you are allowed.) Even with all of this, there is still the risk, but it is low and only you can decide if it is low enough for your comfort level. Good luck to you. {{{HUGS}}}

JESSICA, Oh do I remember the feelings you are experiencing! What am I doing???? What about my kids??? Why am I going to be one of the lucky ones who goes through this without complications???? I remember it all like it was yesterday. All I can say to you is PRAY, PRAY, PRAY!!! God will let you know if this is the right thing to do. I prayed every night for him to close a door along the way if this wasn't right for me. I wanted to be healhty for my kids, but I didn't want to leave them so soon! I hope you will get that sense of peace as I did. It is amazing and you will know it! Please let me know if you just need someone to talk to. I will be more than happy to help.

Jessica, since your ex is going to be off work recuperating from his accident, can he watch the children instead of you having to pay daycare? Best wishes sweetie.
