update
I just got back from my consultation with Dr. A. So far, so good. I did not like the nurse who could not find my vein and had to poke me twice... but other than that, all is well. I am still nervous, but i know that if God brought me to it, he WILL see me through it. I am going to go outside and enjoy the cool weather. thanks for the prayers and keep em coming.
Donna, my prayers are with you. I was touched by your children's post. Actually made my eyes tear. Yes, you are right, God brought you to this, He is going to see you through this. I pray your surgery is a smashing success, pain is minimal and recovery quick. Godspeed. I'll see you soon on the losing side, I'm 13 days away from my surgery.

Your mommy is going to be fine. She is in very good hands. While the nurses will poke her, and probably prod her, the surgeon is very good.
You see, I know this because just a few weeks ago I was right where your mommy is right now. Ohhhh it was painful, but I bet hearing from you will make her aaaaallllllllllll better.
It was so delightful to see you writing to her on this Forum. She is a very lucky mom, and you must be very fortunate children to have a mommy like yours.
Best wishes to you all.
