Best of luck, Satman.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.  I hope all goes well and you have a speedy recovery.

I'm off to Denver this morning, but hope to have computer access sometime in the coming days, so I can check in and see how you're doing.

Keep us posted when you feel up to it.

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

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
Pattibobatti

things off,the ones that inflate every couple of seconds to keep your blood from clotting ,i will be just fine if i never see those damn things again !!
i just wanted to say thank you to everybody one more time.i was thinking about all of you and it really gave me strength. god bless everyone of you.

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.

Satman,

   You've been through a lot. I hope you heal up well. It takes time. I've also been through the mill. I'm here if you need to compare notes about any of this.

Hi there satman!!!

Welcome home - take it easy and write when you can.

I am glad you and Ms. Bobatti hooked up.  It is nice meeting another ANer isn't it?  Denise and I are meeting Yvette a week from Sunday for the first time.  We are all looking forward to it. 

Don't forget your drops if you welcome yourself home with a margarita, beer or tequila!!
