Carol, I have you on my prayer list, and on my calendar for Friday. Many people will be giving you support from all across the country. Stay in touch. Though my surgery involved the hard palate and not the soft palate, there will be some similarities. Let's talk after you know what you are dealing with. In the meantime, if you have questions or just want to talk, post here or email me. XO--COlleen
