Thank you Paul I wish everything goes as planned with your surgery as well, and for it to be as smooth sailing as possible, my ENT said that he will keep staples and stitches in for 10 days due to the slower healing process this time around. May the lord clear us from this disease for once and for all! You're a soldier for having to deal with it 7x and keeping strong! I'm hoping I can due the overhead motions as well and that the Cancer didn't spread to the nerve of the shoulder.
