wow, I must have missed alot some where. Last I heard you had doctor troubles....
Have an amazing day and if I can give you any advice at all it would be to start using your tool from day one and follow each guide to the letter. No drinking and eating, small bites, chew well, stay hydrated, proteins first then veggie and fruits.
(starch is the devil!!)

As always the first day....sip, rest...walk...

Love your self, be brave and know we are here for you in all ways!!!

Wow, it's here! Try and get some rest, easy for me to say. I was practically up all night before my surgery.

You've got a whole bunch of us sending positive thoughts and prayers your way. Hopefully, someone will post for you tomorrow, one of the callers maybe. We will be waiting to hear how it went.

And we have a place all ready for you on the loser's bench! Best wishes Keith!

Default In heaven on roller skates

Hey Keith....

Wow...I envy you...I want my surgery to happen YESTERDAY.
Even if you find you can't sleep you'll get loads during surgery, no?

I remember having surgery as a kid and my mother said that while I was still groggy I told the nurse wheeling me down the hall on a gurney that I was in heaven (lights above) on roller skates (wheels on gurney). I don't remember saying that but since then whenever I've been on a gurney I repeat my young thoughts and it helps to calm me. Weird, huh?

Anyway, luck to you and Bless you....

Teri
