''Going in for surgery....' Those words strike terror in most people's hearts. Yet this book, by a woman who spent many years as a surgical nurse, demystifies the surgical experience, telling us how to prepare ourselves emotionally, physically and spiritually. The information is grounded, realistic, and, above all, highly effective. This is a must read for anyone facing surgery. Not only do we learn about presurgery preparation but we also learn how to encourage a positive, upbeat atmosphere during the procedure, when we presumably would not be conscious. Similarly, the post surgical processes the author offers are easy and effective, shortening surgical recovery time and making it much more comfortable."
