Hi everyone,

I have been in touch with satman for awhile.  He lives close to me and I will be visiting him at the hospital tomorrow.  Thought I would give him one day!!

I will be sure to let everyone know how great he is doing!

Hi there Captain!!

I thought I would make a grand entrance today!!

I am looking forward to seeing Satman.  Don't really know what to expect because I have not seen anyone after that kind of surgery.  I know he is very excited to have this done.  He is having the surgery at the same place I had my AN surgery and he now lives in the same town I used to live in years ago.  One of those small world stories!!

He's probably out of surgery now-Yea!!!

Take care,
Pattibobatti

Dear Satman, Hail Mary.....I've touched the scapula on my headboard and said a prayer.  The Nuns taught us that way back when I think.  Best of luck...Godspeed, Holly

thanks everybody for your thoughts and prayers,it came in real handy.
what was supposed to be a 2 hr procedure turned out to be an 8 hr ordeal.
anyway,things turned out good,i will be released friday sometime.i got to meet pattibobatti
and she is great,a real inspiration.seeing herand learning about her story has really touched me,she is a wonderful
person and has come a long way with her recovery and i hope we get together again real soon.talking to someone that has been  through what you are going through is a big help in dealing with this crap.she is the big sister i never had,had this forum not been around,i would have never met her,or had the opportunity to participate with all of you.
thanks to each and everyone of you for your thoughts and prayers.  john.....

Hi everyone!!

John, I see you got to your computer before I did!!  I wanted to tell everyone that their good wishes and prayers have worked.  You look great.  It was so fun meeting you and your wife.  I don't know who much I may have helped you...all we did was laugh..We did straighten up fast when the really nice volunteer said a prayer with us!!

I look forward to the few months ahead when you are telling us all about how your face is moving.

Now you get to take it easy and get all better from this surgery...And that sweet wife of yours will take good care of you.

Have a nice night

John, welcome home and to your new title of being a "postie" (post-treatment). Please take it slow... take it easy... rest as needed and don't overdue. Continued wellness wishes to you and speedy recovery.
