Replying to Is there life after ACL surgery?

So, I was at a new mountain this past weekend and I was having one of the best nights of my life.  Threw down my first ever 450, multiple 540s over a forty-five foot table, and even a big front over that same table.  I was so pumped and lovin life until we went back to the same rail I 450'd off of earlier that day. I came off, my ski landed wrong, and my knee felt like it exploded.  After a bit of screaming it didn't feel as bad as before so I just iced it every night for the next couple of days.  I could walk and it wasn't that bad, but I still got it checked out to please my mom.  I now have to have surgery next week and I's scared shitless.  I;ve never had surgery before and I'm not going to be able to ski the rest of the season, or play lacrosse my senior year.  I just need some vibes because this sucks so much.  I've been crying for about 24 hours now, and life just sucks. It also doesn't help that my ski hill is right across the street for me to wake up and stare at every morning.  Any advice for what to do with my life?
