At the same time, he is going to take a tendon out of my wrist and put it in the joint of my thumb to help relieve some of the pain from my arthritis. I will probably just be lurking for the next 6 weeks or so since I will not be able to use my right hand. I would appreciate any prayers you can spare. Thanks, Patty

oh man - that sounds like serious surgery and I wish you all the best - if it'a any comfort I had carpral tunnel (very severe) and the surgery was a breeze ...but that's nothing like what you're having -

All the best Patty
