    Thanks for all the kind words. I went in for pre-op today, it was like a ghost town out there as we had an ice storm blow through here yesterday. I never hit 20 driving as the sleet was coming down covering the ice. Long story short, my operation for tomorrow has been rescheduled for Friday morning, the hospital is under staffed due to weather.

    It is what it is (pun on a previous post somewhere recently), and it probably for the best.

    For those having bad weather, hang in there and be safe.

    I’m hoping everything goes will for you. My arteries improved enormously when I cut out sugar in my diet

    Prayers answered, everything went well and I will hopefully go home tomorrow afternoon. We went through the iced over roads safely and got through the procedure well. I don’t remember anything but have some discomfort which is to be expected. I won’t be doing much in the near future except recovering and checking the posts on Castboolits, light duty for a while has it advantages.

    Thanks for all the prayers as I have been rewarded with the continued gift of life, I first had the same surgery on both sides of my neck in 2012 and felt truly blessed to have had this extended gift through the miracles of the Lord. Through him all things are possible for he has blessed me once again.

    Still a little out of it, hope y’all understand my sincere thanks to everyone, I’m shedding tears as I type.

    Been waiting to hear the good news, Slim!
