Doctor's / Surgery update 9-10-08

What a day to be going in for surgery, 9-11. Anyways, saw the surgeon today. He seems to think that the lumps are either lypomas or just bumps, but he will remove all three plus some moles that are in the area. The greatest concern is the one under my arm and the damage that the surgery back in December did to the area. Therefore, instead of just a local anesthetic, they will put me under lightly. When the surgeon touched the area my arm went into spasms. So much for watching the surgery. I was hoping to give them some guidance or learn a new trade while I was in there. Surgery is scheduled for 4:30PM. I have to be at Southwest General at 3:00PM to get prepped. No stitches, he will use tape like the big surgery before. For going there, I thought that I might be anxious, but I guess not. My BP was 113/72 with a 72 pulse. I may have had cancer, but I obviously don't have a heart or circulation problem. For that matter, an anxiety problem either.

Pray that all goes well tomorrow. Pray for wisdom and a steady hand for the surgeon and the staff that all goes well.
