Best wishes and extra prayers for smooth surgery and recovery. A positive mental attitude is your best preparation! You'll do great with this life-saving tool!

My surgery has been postponed, I need some more tests. My PCP is very slow and doesn't seem to care very much about the postponement. This is a very depressive time. Dealing with Dr. Kahlili's office is interesting, I spoke with a wonderful nurse named Janet, who was very understanding. However, Elaine, is very cold and insensitive. I don't even know if my surgery has been approved yet -- everyone is "calling me back".
