  • Tomorrow is my surgery

    Yes, tomorrow is the big day with Dr. B. I want to take a moment and thank all of you for your words of encouragement and support. So far, I think I'm handling the whole thing remarkably well. My husband, who post's as JNC on the forum, will keep you posted on surgery and post op. Thanks again....I can feel the love. Carmen
