    Dear tennislover,

    I hope your surgery will be successful and the recovery speedy. I will pray for you. Be strong, you are in God's hands. He will do for you what doctors and nurses can not do. I also hope that you can start playing tennis soon!!!

    God Bless, Eleonora

    You are in my thoughts. I remember the evening before Mark's surgery. He was so nervous and I felt helpless because there was nothing I could do to help him. I know my presence eased his worry though. The surgery was a smashing success and he got as many drugs as his heart desired to dull any pain. He had some pain but only if he waited to long to take the meds. I'm sending good thoughts your way.

    Very very best wishes and good vibes flying in your direction. The worst part for me was the fasting afterwards, but it passes.

    You've got my prayers tennislover....I remember the day before surgery, couldn't wait to get it over with at that point. Spent the day prepping and building a small garden with my daughter that we enjoyed for the rest of the summer while I recovered. Things will go great, and we look forward to hearing from you on your return!

    Tennis lover, best of luck to you on your surgery. Just think, they will take a lump of poison out of your body tomorrow and you will be so much better afterwards! So, think positive and take good care. There's no nap like the drug induced nap you get on the operating table. I was always dead-annoyed when they wake me up afterwards :)

    Cheers,
    Ying

    heather -

    Caught your My Space blog yesterday. Sending you lots of food energy and prayers. Hope they can do it laproscopically as you desire - also hope they can locate the stoma where the nurse marked it.

    you are a very brave and heroic woman - you make us proud. The good news is you will be an official Semi-Colon when you wake up. Welcome to the club!

    Be well. Keeping you andyour family & little ones in my prayers.
