    I have been checking if there was anything. Steve is constant on my mind, what a courageous man and so sure of his decision. My thoughts are also with his family.
    May God guide the surgeons hands and bring peace to his family.

    Thank you, Mags, for sharing

    Thank you, Mags, for sharing updates with us. Steve has been on my mind all day, too. It is amazing how close this 'forum family' can feel to one another. Tomorrow will be a long day for his family. Prayers for Steve, his loved ones, and his medical team.
