Hey Everyone!

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I am having surgery this Wednesday, tomorrow, at 1:00pm. I am having a laproscopic ileotic resection. I am kinda bugged about it because I was just diagnosed in April and since then it seems as if my life has fallen apart. Although I do have faith that everything will work out, I sometimes get depressed or anxious about life. :( Yeah...
I didn't want to have surgery but I have gone through all types of medication and at some points, I wasn't the best with the medicine because I didn't always take it. My parents are very apprehensive about the surgery because once you start they say you get cut open again.
I will graduate from the University of Georgia with a degree that I don't really want with about 35,000 in debt or go to a smaller school and get a degree that I am passionate about for 50,000. Ehhh... Frustrations! I've already gotten myself into 20,000 in student loan debt and haven't even received credit for the classes because of my "refractory Crohn's."
Ehhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And through it all, I still miss my ex-boyfriend who got TWO different women pregnant while I was in the hospital this summer.

Pray for me you guys- seriously! I cannot wait to have a testimony to young people who are newly diagnosed with Crohn's Disease and tell them how they can overcome every obstacle thrown at them. :)
 
Good luck with the surgery. Take care of yourself and focus on yourself only!
As far as the study goes, always follow your passion - when you have the strength to do so.
(And the ex, hmmm, running around getting women pregnant, don't waste another thought on him - it's not how a man behaves.)
All the best.
