Well, the time has finally come and my husband is scheduled for liver resection tomorrow. Not going to lie, I'm a nervous wreck, but we believe this is his best option. Please keep him in your prayers . I know it's going to be a long week and hope to post some good news on the weekend. I'm hoping the hospital will let me stay there as it's about an hour away from us. My daughter will be there during the day and take care of the "dog from hell" (lol )at nite. God Bless and thanks for the prayers and support. Couldn't have gotten to this point if I hadn't heard of the many success stories here. Thanks everyone
Diane

    Sending up good prayers!

    Don't ASK to stay the night...TELL them you are staying!!! (I always stay with my beau when he is hospitalized...at least the first night when he cannot speak for himself....). Ask for the Patient Relations manager at the hospital, or tell his surgeon, and let THEM call the request over...

    Hugs, kathi

    The wife and I both will be praying for you two. My wife stayed every night I was in the hospital when I had the resection.

    Believe,
