Roxjanine,
Do not underestimate how much difference a 50 to 60% correction will make...When I look back at the body I had in my early 20s, when my curves were more than what yours would be at 50% correction, I would take that body in a heartbeat! No one ever knew I had scoliosis, even though I always had some rotation in the lumbar.
It's terrifying surgery. That's all there is to it. I'm sure you didn't get two weeks away from it without a lot of deep thought and soul searching and weighing the benefits against the advantages.
When I get within two weeks I think I will be a basket case, and it may be one of the times in my life when I actually consider accepting some pharmaceutical calming, although I'm hoping it doesn't come to that. If only someone could just knock me out while I'm sleeping one night, when I'm still thinking it's a couple of weeks away, and not wake me until it's all over.
