Hi Dee,

Thank you for your reply.It sounds like your husband has pretty much gone through it all.This is such a nerve racking time and his sugery isn't until tomorrow.I understand what you mean about the need for antidepressants.The only things they have given him so far are pain meds.He just sits there some days and wrings his hands because he just doesn't know what else to do.He has been kept in a holding pattern since 10/4 when he received the "official diagnosis",they just deceided about 2 weeks ago that it was operable.I will let you all know how he does with the surgery.Thank you for your time and interest.
