Your anxieties and fears are well portrayed in this poem as well as pieces of your life that makes one wonder...
Warning: Advice from a total stranger (please don't be offended)
surgery no matter in what form can be frightening but it's okay to be scared, it's okay to doubt, it's okay to feel whatever you're feeling right now...
I never had undergone a surgery in my life so I can't really grasp your fear as well as others but I do understand and I do empathize...
I'm not going to say that everything after the operation would be all rainbows and butterflies, recovering is a process and you're going to need all the support you get...
your family members and friends are there for you (myself included if you'd allow) don't be afraid to speak out whatever you are feeling be it after or before the operation...it's better to get it all out actually, it gives your heart less stress during the procedure...
also (I'm going to get all medical here) comply with whatever medication or therapy your doctor recommends, you won't see the progress or changes immediately, it'll take time, you just have to be strong and survive because you'll eventually get your own moment with rainbows and butterflies.
P.S. If you already went under the knife, is currently recovering and received this review... all I can say is, get well soon. ^_^

Thank you so very much :D and mt surgery is the 18, I'm going to be in the hospital over Christmas
I just stumbled across this today while reading other things. I had to come read this one as well as I was pulled in by the title. I had a friend in HS who wore a brace because of scoliosis and supposedly I had a mild form of it although it has never been an issue for me personally (found it in my medical chart...weird) When our bodies are supposed to work and grow a certain way - and they don't it can be devastating to us to deal with it. This poem is anthemic and shouts that frustration.
A powerful poem. I could feel the desire to lose the pain and hope for a cure. My grandmother had Scoliosis as a child. She got cured and lived a good life. 95 years. I hope the operation is soon. People who know and live with pain. Appreciate life and a healthy body. I hope all is well with you. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the excellent poem.

oiii i'm sorry hun. I've got a friend with scolios, and I don't think anyone should have to go through that. If you need to talk inbox me, kk? Despite all the confusion and worry in your piece, I think you're a very brave girl and you'll come out on top in the end.
ok, today i just needed one more thing to explode, this was it, you made my eyes tear up and a chill ran down my spine, i don't want to tell you to be strong and i don't want to tell you that yo'll get through this, i just want to say, i've been there, and that this will pass, maybe you feel so confused now but, it wil pass.

surgery can be quite frightening, i have had three in my life but this is about you, so we will stop there. your family will be there for you, trust me, no one loves more deeply than family...and anyway, your writerscafe family is here for you all the time and you may certainly always count on me to be here for you. i will be a friend. all you gotta do is click. this poem is full of hope, doubt and fear. let's try real hard to make it only hope that enters your heart from now on. turn your fear into fierce pride and righteous indignation! you will do it, Raya!!
