I have a date.....

[Laurz]

......with pumphead on the 27th at the wee hours of the am. Seems we are going to repair/replace the mitral valve and do a little re-plumbing while the doc is there. (I also need a by-pass). My surgeon is going to be Pierre Tibi, in Phoenix AZ. Comes highly recommended so I know all will be well. Thanks for all the information, support, help and laughs you all have supplied over the last month or so. And AWWWWAAAAAYYYYYY I go!!!!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Laurie***

While it probably doesn't feel like a celebrating feat, congratulations!

I'll put you on the calendar if your not already. I'm sure you'll still have questions between now and then. We're here.

Laurie,

You must be very happy to have this scheduled. Just think, next week you will be on this side of the mountain.

Now, spend the next week doing wonderful things and not cleaning or stuff like that. It will wait.

Keep us posted, please.

Laurie,

What's this "WE", Kemosabie :D (a little traveling music plays ;) ). You plan on having a hand in there with the surgeon ("I'll hold that out of your way Doc" :eek: )

With Ross and others here you have to be carefull you don't blow a stitch laughing too hard :D :D :D .

As you can see from my "signature" I had just about what you are facing. While it was no walk in the park (except maybe in New York City--muggings and all) things were never as bad as I expected them to be. Da Family will be here to help, provide advice, and keep you laughing through this. Good luck on your pending surgery and keep us posted on your progress and your return to the other side of the mountain. We will send prayers and good thoughts your way.

May God Bless,

Danny
