Thank you. I went to my pre-op screening yesterday and was surprised to find out that this is outpatient surgery. My jaw hit the floor. They are going to remove a major organ from my body, and send me home the same day. Medical science has sure come a long way.
I think those products are being sold here in NC. I've seen ads for Revel in the Charlotte Disturber. I'll keep everyone posted to let you know how they work.
I don't know if it's appropriate to do so, but I would ask if any are inclined to do so, I would appreciate being remembered in prayers on Friday. I hope to feel the strength and warmth of God's love when going into the operating room. For the first time in my adult life I find my courage faltering.

OUTPATIENT??? I figured you'd be lying on your side in the hospital for a week! That's incredible.

As for the prayers, you got 'em.

Your biggest risk is probably general anesthesia. I've said prayers for you already. Don't worry. You'll do fine.
