    Morning all, this is the day of my reversal surgery. We have to be at the hospital by 8:30 a.m. to get ready, surgery is at 10 a.m. Hoping to be back home by Friday and as quickly as I healed last time it might even be Thursday.

    All the pre-op tests they did yesterday came out perfect so I am good to go.

    I'll have Randy post here when he gets home tonight with an update.

    I'm glad all the pre-op tests results were so good Toni. Now to get the surgery behind you so that you can get home and recover. I'm hoping you heal well enough to get to be back with Randy on Thursday. There's nothing better that recouping at home.

    Toni, we all sincerely hope all goes well, and goes quickly for you. Randy will be bearing the brunt of the worry, so our thoughts are with him, too. Take care of yourself and get back to gardening as soon as possible!

    Feel better soon! @_)-->-- (< its a flower :D)

    Wish I could go to surgery myself. I dont have medical insurance right now so it'll be some time (need it soon though, stupid law...). I have a lump on my leg- non-cancerous!- thats been there for about 18 years. Its usually painful though some days are worse than others. I want it gone!

    I'm not good at these kind of posts so I will repeat what everyone has said. If you have a laptop and awake during surgery, maybe you can still post??? ;)

    Toni's recovering well, but it'll be a couple of days before she can eat and start getting back to normal. The Post-op pain is easing up and she was able to get up and walk to the door of her room and back today.

    Give her all our love and best wishes Randy. I hope the pain goes completely asap and that she can manage to eat again soon.
    Many thanks for letting us know how she is doing.
