Since seeing the preview for the upcoming movie Awake, I have been thinking about the awful feeling that it would be to be in surgery and be awake the whole time. You are
laying there on the operating table paralyzed, unable to talk or scream or anything and have to listen and even feel some of the pain and pressure of the operation. I cant imagine this happening to me or anyone else but it does. The statistics I read was 1 in 400 which is pretty good that it wont happen to you but still weirds me out that it even does happen. I was reading an article about a woman in Virginia that this happened to while she was having surgery on her eye. She was having one removed and could feel the pressure of having the eye removed and the sounds going on around her but could not move or make any sound at all. She has nightmares and post traumatic stress from this happening to her. She cant even lay down when she sleeps because of the nightmare she went through. Some crazy stuff if you ask me!

Thanks for your comments, I really appreciate them. What kind of surgery are you having? I am sure it will go over fine, hope the blog didnt scare you.

I would much rather operate on myself than go to a hospital and be awake and watch them cut me open. LOL. I can just sit in my living room and do that. LOL.
