Toni, I'm a "New Kid" in the group. Just got my packet of info from Pam W. in the mail yesterday and hope to have surgery maybe in the fall. I'll be praying for you by name tomorrow. I will pray for peace of mind, ease of fears, a GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP tonight, for the staff and for Dr. Bollman who will care for you, for easing of any pain you may have, for a quick recovery and for the beginning of the rest of your life. HUGS, Beth T. in Independence, KS
