Semi-OT: Marilyn's Surgery

[Guest guest]

Dearest One "Wizop Marilyn L. Alm" LouisianaSCDLagniappe@... May God take the surgeon's hands and the assistant's hands to guide them. I want you to feel God's warmth as he takes you in his arms and relax. And we will see you soon, here. I pray all good thoughts for you and your family. God has blessed you with the SCdiet, too. Shalom! Amen! Loving Care, Gay wrote:Heyla, folks....I'd planned to post a long note about what had been happening this week, but the necessity of getting all my food ready (since the hospital states that it can't guarantee safe food per my diet) for Harry to bring up when the doctor lets me have any, and other medical gyrations has made it impossible for me to pull a report together.Tomorrow morning, I report to Touro Hospital for 7:15 AM (Central

Daylight Time, GMT-5) for the plastic surgeon to "mark me" for that part of the operation.Then I go uptown to see my acupuncturist for an oncologist-okayed pre-op treatment.Then I come back to Touro Hospital to check in.The surgery is scheduled for noon.I would ask that you surround not only me, but my surgeons and their assistants and all those who will care for me with prayers, healing thoughts, pink lights, and all good things.By this time tomorrow, the operation will be over, and I pray that the cancer has not spread, and all I must do is heal from the surgery and prepare to resume my life.I am truly, and sincerely frightened of an operation my oncologist describes as "challenging," in significant measure, because of my weight. I remind myself that, thanks to SCD, I am in much, much better health than I was for the gallbladder surgery in 2001, and that I weigh 180 pounds less than I did then. Knowing that I am in your

thoughts helps, more than you can possibly know.With gratitude and love, — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Endometrial Cancer, February 2008, Surgery 7 April 2008 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund ________________________________________Loving Care Grammy Gay CD-1994,SCD-1997 Web Site: http://www.SCDiet.net/ Warning:personal posts on the list serves can be googled.Put in Subject: SCD or I may not see your post to me.
