Dear Diary, Today I woke up and had all this anxiety pent up in me. I have absolute confidence in my surgical team tomorrow but I wouldn’t be human if I didn’t feel some nerves.

Dear Diary, I’ve made an effort to always remain positive in these posts but today I’m going the opposite way. I feel like as the countdown to surgery continues the more shit is giving me anxiety.

This weekend was packed! I feel like I definitely over exerted myself. I’ve been super tired lately and I think the brain fatigue is kicking in. But I don’t regret it all.

Dear Diary, It’s currently 1:30 in the morning and as I tired as I am I can’t sleep. I have 2 sleep patterns, I’m out by 10:30 pm or I’m awake until 3:30 am.
