Hi Everybody,
This is Tim. You know, the guy that reads but doesn't write. I want to thank everybody for putting my wonderful wife at ease with your answers to her questions. I'm not really sweating the operation tomorrow. Maybe having one brain-cell left after the removal of some melanoma from the ol' noggin is the cause. I was told that both problems are probably due to the exposure of Agent Orange from SE Asia. At any rate, the second cell was on vacation at the time the cancer was removed, saw a chance to escape, and made a break for it. What a way to get out of work! Anyway, we're asking for everybody to keep up the prayers, not only for me, but for everybody on this site. As long as we stick together, we've got it beat. See ya when I come out of ICU. Thanks again for everything.

I hope everything goes great and that you have a fantastic recovery. I will be doing the same thing Wednesday, January 18th. I am having mitral valve repair/replacement, one bypass, and Maze procedure. I do not have your spirit, I am scared silly.
I will send prayers and positive thoughts your way.

Praline,

We are praying for you and you will be in our prayers and thoughts. We will pray that God gives you a calm and peace that passes understanding.

Tim & Ann

Tim,

Good luck on your surgery. I hope you are getting everything you are due from VA on that Agent Orange thing. Never made it "in country" but had several friends that experienced a lot of problems because of it. VA has gotten a little more cooperative in accepting responsiblity for support.

Also nice to see YOU post for a change. Take care of that ONE brain cell and the other stuff and we look forward to Ann's post on the other side of the mountain.

Prayers and good thoughts continue y'alls way.

Praline,

Prayers and good thoughts for you too Chat Buddy. Good Luck.

May God Bless,

Danny
