    Hello Curve52-
    well, that is getting close ! While i was waiting, I gathered movies, books, magazines, craft stuff, etc. to keep me busy post-op. Hang in there and keep posting. Hearing from other scolies on this forum has been the best therapy for me ! Best wishes.... Lisa

          Prayers for a smooth surgery

          just writing to tell you that I will say a prayer for your surgery, tell yourself it's your turn to be the patient now, and let yourself be taken care of. Ask for pain meds, and tell the nurses if you can't do something they want you to do! Please write when you can- when you're able to sit at a computer and tell us how you're doing. God bless -- Jamie

                  HI Curve,

                  I'm a firm believer that every thing happens for a reason. It must not have been the right time for you. But when the time comes you will be ready. I know it is very discouraging, after the build up you must have gone through, but stay strong and keep the faith that it was not meant to be at that time!!!

                  I hope you wait is not long and I hope everything goes well for your next scheduled surgery!!!

                  Shari
