It's good to see the positivity in your post, even though "scared" you've got humor there and that's a good sign. The hardest thing I've ever done was tell my kids (4 and 7 at the time)I had cancer...I don't regret it but it was hard on them and me.

The more information you can provide, the better feedback you'll get. The staging etc... Where are you being treated? Comprehensive Cancer Care centers are the best places to start. The surgery and treatment can be scary, however I think you'll do just fine.

Best Wishes
