Question:
Please think of us and send out prayers and positive thoughts.

We are leaving in a little bit for the 3 hr drive to Pittsburgh. My surgery is tomorrow. DH had his surgery 2/11 and is doing great. I am really calm so far and hope that God keeps giving me peace at mind and heart during all the waiting here that is left. Thanks all!!    — Pookie B. (posted on April 5, 2004)

Thanks all for everything. We are back home now. I has my surgery on Tuesday, and was released yesterday. I feel good now. Still stiff and sore as to be expected. Everything went well. I had Lap RnY done so I can still move pretty well. Thanks everyone for thinking and praying for me and my family. God be praised!
