I'm thinking of you this week Craig as you gear up for the lung surgery on Thursday. I've posted an Alison Krauss video (Down in the River to Pray) and healing prayer for you on "A Cancer Journal" http://rob-pollock.blogspot.com/.

To use the expression Adrian introduced upstream. "I am holding you in the light!"

Peace and Blessings... Rob; in Vancouver

    Rob, You Are a Blessing...
    I just said a "Healing Prayer" to God for you after reading this when I got up this morning, Rob. My prayer was that we need to keep people like you so that you can continue to spread His message to all whose path you cross. Blessing and Healings to you, my Friend!

    Thank you so much for thinking of me during this time - you've been an unexpected blessing to me and my life - and your friendship means so much to me.

    Somewhere I need to come to Canada and meet you - we can get your choir together and all of can sing "Down to the River to Pray." With all of the other beautiful voices singing, I migt actually sound ok :)

    Thursday
    Hey Craig,

    I didn't know you were having lung surgery on Thursday. You will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers, and I too will be holding you in the light. John will be having chemo that day, so while I sit with him getting his infusion, I'll be thinking about you and will be eager to see you back at it on this board soon afterward. Meanwhile, thank you for being so warm and welcoming to us - it really helps.

Just remember you always have family here and you have come a long way in your struggle, you are never alone.

    God Bless you.

    My energy added
    Hi Craig! I also somehow missed the post that you were getting surgery on Thursday! That intruder of late has messed up all the posts.

    I have been feeling a lot of energy. Yesterday i was able to walk all around Old Town San Diego and barely got tired! A little dizzy, but i didn't poop out! I want to send you some of that positive energy now, and i want you to grab hold of it, and use it for your healing after the surgery.

    I will be thinking about you, and continue to send you my positive energy through this (hopefully last) ordeal.

    Many hugs,
    Krista

    My Brother...
    ...You will come back to roar again my lion, I know how nervous and alittle scared you must be with this surgery, shoot, who wouldn't be?? But I know you will get through this, and look forward too seeing you post again, I hate that it may be awhile, but you never know, you may be up and at 'em by within a few weeks! Technology is so advanced now, and you are getting a really advanced treatment that none of us have even gone through before, I am kind of excited to even hear about it when you get back! I am always thinking and praying for you, as I do for all here, we're all gonna miss our Craigy while he's recuperating even from surgery, and positive energies and thoughts will be coming your way as you recover, we'll talk right before the surgery we hope, to put you in the mode that things are going to get better with you now!

    Hugsss!
    ~Donna
