To be honest that is the cleanest facilityhospital I have ever been in. At least you don't have that far to drive. Right behind you buddy. You next week me the week after.
Thank you Maureen & Dan. Yes, the Mayo Clinic - Phoenix does not seem like all the typical hospitals I've seen in my life. The inside lobby looks more like an Embassy Suites hotel.
You are young and healthy! You'll do great! I'm five weeks post op today. Time has gone by quickly! It will for you, too, and hopefully you'll look back and say "that wasn't so bad".
Richard, thanks for the kind words, especially about the "you are young" part -- pictures are sometimes deceiving. I shaved off my gray goatee for the surgery!! I have read your journal. Sounds like your recovery is going well. I'm looking forward to viewing this surgery "from the other side".
Thank you Jean -- I read your journal. Glad to hear you are doing so well.
My prayers with you tomorrow....... Hope for a speedy recovery.
Thinking of you and praying for you on your surgery day. A speedy recovery to you!

Conrad and Sue, the most wonderful support person in the world
Thank you. I am so lucky to have Sue, my wife with me during this journey. And I'm lucky to have all of you on the website to teach me patience, hope and courage.
