I have my right ankle MRI tomorrow morning and am seriously dreading it. I don't know if that's because I just hate MRI's (claustrophobic, hence the valium prescription) or I'm more afraid of the results. At this point, nothing the report can tell me would be a shocker. I fully expect the worst but really hope for the best.
At one point I started to pray that the doctor is wrong and nothing is seriously wrong with the ankle. But then I started to feel very selfish...there are so many more people in this world who need their prayers answered more than me.
On Monday a friend's son will go in for open heart surgery. He is only a few months old and needs the prayers way more than me. I would definitely suffer through another surgery so that he can have a happy and healthy life.
Another friend has a mother suffering from breast cancer. I would gladly suffer another surgery and recovery so that she has more time for treatment and maybe one day a cure.
Two friends are pregnant with their first babies--I would gladly suffer more in order for them to have happy and healthy babies.
And one more friend has a baby who needs surgery in April. I would have my foot amputated to ensure nothing bad happens to him or anyone else I know and love. I can live w/o a foot, but I have no idea how someone could live without their child.
So, don't say prayers for me. Say prayers for the ones who really need them. Just keep your fingers crossed for me. I have faith that everything happens for a reason and will deal with whatever hand I am dealt.
