You'll probably need to be propped up while your resting in bed, so why don't you have ribit go ahead and ship his Dolly Parton blow-up doll to you, now?

Re: "I am sure the bored will be praying for your speedy recovery!!" &&

Much obliged. None of it seems quite real. Understand that I feel COMPLETELY normal... just sort of a heartburn sensation now and then that runs up into my left shoulder and down the left arm. I hiked a mountain a few months ago and could certainly do it again tomorrow. So wrapping my head around the idea of not being here in two years without the surgery takes a little getting used to.

Oddly enough, I'm not nervous about it. The most frustrating part for me is knowing that I'll be a burden on my wife next month, and figuring out all the things I need to do between now and then. I need to get a will. I need to set up medical power of attorney. I need to de-clutter our living quarters (for all I know, I may not be on my feet for a while.) I need to make sure my wife knows where contact information, phone numbers and passwords are. I need to tell our contractors to contact my wife, not me. And I'm going to BEG the electrician to finish the job since I won't be in a position to move things to the barn after the surgery.

Worst of all, of course, is that I know this board can't possibly get by without me. Maybe I can set up a "bot" to post snarky responses to you guys every now and then. Lots to do...
