Hi Greg, yes it is very scary and the closer the surgery date the higher the anxiety. When is your surgery and where? For me I did a lot of praying, meditation type relaxation (music, outdoor scenery visuals, quiet moments where I just cleared my mind) etc.. I also worked out to help relieve tension - that was really good. Walking is another great source of relaxation for the mind and body. So basically I worked on controlling the fear. I also read fear verses from the Bible which helped me. Incidentally, the Bible has like almost 400 of them - one for every day   ;)
