Hi Jill; I wanted to give you my support and best wishes on your upcoming surgery. My surgery is tomorrow and I'll be at St. Lukes as well. I know you'll be glad you made this decision to take control of your life and get back on your feet. I'm looking forward to visiting my sons,in Philadelphia this summer. I haven't been able to visit them in over 2 years because I can't fit into an airline seat. It'll be nice to see them once again. Best of luck to you and I salute your courage. God bless, Bob
