Dear So and So

[indysteel]

I'm sending my good thoughts out to RD, Biciclista's hubby! Tomorrow is the big S day, I think.

((((Mimi)))) and ((((RD)))).

+1. Sending you guys good vibes. I got the kitties on it as well!

Thinking of you and your hubby, Mimi.
Keep us posted.
I admire the way you have handled this situation. I don't think I would be so graceful.

Dear Crankin
You only get to see my good side. I whine, cry and resent. I have bad dreams. I am not being very productive. I really appreciate you and all the other gals on here to talk to, to banter, and to talk about things that are not upsetting because i have enough of the upsetting stuff happening here. My DH wants my son and I to be with him for the first 48 hours after the surgery!!! and not leave him alone. THAT is not going to be easy. So he talks big but really he's scared too or why would he want us there constantly when he's in ICU (when lots of people will be there to take care of him?) anyway, yes yes, I will keep you guys posted. I am taking my notebook computer to the hospital, where I will be staying in the waiting room for much of the day..

thanks you guys.

Sending positive vibes your way, Mimi. For the surgery, and for you and your son. Don't forget to take care of yourself too

Mimi- best of luck to you and Don tomorrow. Bring some healthy snacks and things to do- it sounds like a long day ahead. All the best, we are thinking of you.

Dear Mimi,

Despite what you say, you are handling this with grace. The crying, despair, etc are normal reactions given what's going on. You have a long day (and more) ahead. Know that all of us are here rooting for you and RD and sending as many good vibes as we can in your direction.

I'll stomp the pedals extra hard for both of you later today.

Keeping you in my thoughts.

Mimi, Lee and I have you and RD in our thoughts today. Please take care of yourself. ((hugs)) from the Bobs.

aw, you guys are making me cry.. thanks.
some good news: dr doesn't want to take out his gallbladder after all! one less insult to his body.
especially since his gallbladder never bothered him, we both thought it was stinky that they considered it a "throw away" organ.
he's in surgery now. he maintained an incredibly good attitude even as they doped him up. hes an amazing man.
