Note from Monday I posted on Facebook...

This was a note I posted on Facebook this past Monday...

Friends and family,

Some have asked about my minor hernia surgery tomorrow 11/20/07. I found out from a call to the hospital a couple hours ago that my operation is due to start at 7:30am tomorrow, so we are going to Park-Ridge at 6 o’clock in the morning!

They say I will be in surgery for only 1.5 hours and then recovery is about an hour. I can’t believe that I will be home by noon, but it looks that way. It really seems like quite a routine operation these days, but I welcome your prayers and thoughts as I am in surgery, so please share this tonight with others if you want. If you want to, a phone call or email when I am home for 2 weeks recovering would be nice as well if you’re not too busy. Please pray for Nina too, since I will become an even bigger burden on her, I’m sure, as I heal. :-)

I actually figured out a way to have my PC monitor accessible with cables and using a wireless keyboard and mouse I might be online from time to time. Mostly, though, I’ll be resting and reading and watching DVDs. I hope I don’t go stir crazy as I am told by some of you who’ve had this surgery in the past that it is very important to lay still and heal properly.

Thanks for your concerns and I hope to see you on the other side of all this….

Blessings,
-Paul
