Just an update for those that have been following this saga. I was supposed to have my surgery last Friday, 4/30, but the Dr. called and threw his back out the night before and didn't think he could get through the surgery and didn't want to leave me opened up on the table. I of course thanked him as that would have left me in an awkward position. We have rescheduled the surgery for Tuesday, 5/04. Hopefully it will occur this time because I am loosing the ability to psych myself up for this.
Regards, Kirk
