Hi Jim.

You look upset, what’s wrong?

It’s nothing. I’m just a little nervous.

Is everything all right?

Well, I’m having surgery tomorrow on my finger.

What’s wrong with your finger?

I broke it the other day playing basketball.

Oh, that’s terrible.

Yeah, it’s been bothering me since that day.

Are you afraid of having surgery?

Yes. I’ve never had surgery before.

I wouldn’t worry. I had to have surgery on my leg last year. Everything went fine.

Were you nervous before the surgery?

A little. Who’s your doctor?

Dr. Allen.

Oh, I’ve heard he’s really good. I don’t think you have anything to worry about.

Good. That makes me feel much better.
