I'd love to have an angel! Thank you very much!!!! Feel free to call me anytime. I'm working through tomorrow. I feel very special. One of my co-workers brought me a "hospital survival pack". It's so sweet - it has magazines, a mirror, toothbrush and decent toothpaste, good tissues, q-tips, lotion, etc. all the little incidentals you wouldn't think to take but wish you would have. Plus the girls here at work are taking me to dinner tomorrow night to celebrate my last meal before surgery. I'm amazed how excited they are for me. Thank you for volunteering to be there for me - I really, truly do appreciate your kindness, and I look forward to hearing from you!!! I wi**** were Monday already!!! Have a great day!!!!! Cathy

Hi Cathy. It's Lisa from your PMRI Life Skills class. Kevin and I wanted to wish you good luck on your surgery and we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Kevin's surgery is next Wednesday. I already had mine on July 20th. Take care and good luck! Lisa

Hi Lisa, How are you making out? I saw where you had posted earlier - how was the whole experience for you? Are you having a hard time getting the protein in? I talked to Eunice and she was having a little time getting it in, but otherwise, she's doing great too!!! Maybe we'll see each other in the hospital - I should be leaving when Kevin's coming in. What time is Kevin's surgery scheduled? I have to be at the hospital by 5:00am, so I hope Dr. Irgau has a big cup of coffee so he's wide awake!!! Thanks so much for the prayers, and mine are with you and Kevin. Keep in touch, so we can help each other through this - I'm so excited!!!! See ya!!!! Cathy

Cathy, Best wishes for a happy, healthy, new life. Sending lots of prayers and well wishes your way. You're in great hands. Dr I is a brilliant man. Not only is he a fantastic surgeon, but a very caring understanding person. Deb

I'm so excited for you! HUGS You're gonna do great! Rachel

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Don't worry about anything. I got myself all worked up for nothing. Dr. Irgau was my surgeon and he is excellent. Before you know it the whole thing will be over & you'll be recovering. Dineen is right about the protein. Don't worry about it for the 1st week. Also I got some chewable gas-x before I went home. That really helped with the gas pain. I'm so excited for you!!!! Good luck. Kim
