Still hoping good things for you Trish.

I'm sure Fabian will update so soon.  I'm sure he has his hands full right now.

Hi Trish, I am still waiting for your husband Fabian's update.

I hope everything went well wiith the surgery and that you are doing ok.

Trish and I have the same doctors. In fact, I was meeting with Dr Guha early Monday morning when you were already in the hospital waiting for surgery. Guha and Rutka are great doctors. I am next in line for surgery in a couple of weeks. LizH

Okay, I think the Good Ship PBW is about to capsize because all the forumites are leaning over the edge waiting for sight of Trish or Fabian. 

Trish, sending you lots of good wishes and hoping your are past that yucky first day!
