Selina-
After being in a hospital for only 10 days for my clinical trial, I can understand your feeling this way about the month in the hospital. But, look on the bright side. You will have all these wonderful professionals just outside your door. It should give you a good level of comfort.
Bring reading materials, a laptop for ease of communications, and focus on a quick recovery!
Once they give you the go-ahead, maybe you can even start to exercise - depending on the protocol of your hospital. I know at Penn, (in Pennsylvania), they really encourage that.
One month in the hospital, in return for a potential cure, really isn't too bad of a deal.
Good luck to you. You're heading in the right direction.
