Hi!  I am doing just fine thanks for asking.  The worst part of it all is working yourself up for nothing.  Trust me.  In m y case everything went well.  I will send you a message here shortly giving you the details on my surgery. Not because I am not wanting to share, just wanted to let you know I intend on answering you, but have to do something really quick! : ) Believe me when I say this...it will be over before you know it!  If you are nervous they always give you something and then the next thing you know you are recovering and they send you home with instructions and meds!  Talk to you in a sec.

Sorry I am just now seeing this as you are probably well out of surgery now. I hope you are resting. Haven't been feeling too well today myself. It is day 7 or 8 since my surgery and I feel kind of lousy today. As I said before post when you are up to it and let us all know you are doing well. It was hard to make it through the morning myself without something /anything to drink. They did give me something in recovery thankfully. Can't wait to hear how well you are doing.
Take care!
