Default Caitlin has her 1st op date.

Ok now panic mode has set in. I got a call from the hospital today and they are doing her pre-op on the 4th and her op on the 17th of May.

I feel so sad.

Thanks for being there for me

Oh Tina, I know you will but try not to worry too much. I'm sure it will all go smoothly and it will be for the best in the end. Caitlin is so young she will not remember anything, it's going to be so much harder for you. I'll be thinking of you and your precious little girl xxx

I know how hard it is to live with the worry of surgery for your child and am thinking of you as the op date approaches.

Tina, I know it hard but try to be positive that this Op will help Caitlin.

It will be so much harder for you than for her.

Take care and keep us posted

Thinking of you Tina, it is such a huge worry for us when our children are in hospital, but as the others have said, Caitlin won't remember any of it, she will just be better afterwards. I hope the op and the recovery time to fly by, so that soon you are looking back on it as a thing in the past no longer to worry about.

Hi Tina

It is a worry when our children need surgery. I will be thinking of you and your little girl. ((hugs))
