VBAC OR CESAREAN???

Libby
Long story short-my oldest was born via emergency cesarean 14 years ago, my 2nd was a planned surgery 12 years ago. I wanted to try for a VBAC howveee I've been so miserable with this pregnancy that I just want to be over already. 
I'm 30+3, my dr won't do surgery before 39 weeks. I'm due 5.28. My oldest daughters 8th grade promotion is 5.25. Should I do the surgery since I'm high risk for the same problems that led to the 1st? Or should I wait & see what happens? 
I'm so afraid that I will have the same problems again & end up in surgery....but I also don't want to miss my daughters promotion. 
Hopefully this all made sense. What would you do??? Just curious.
