They sent me on to the surgery center where I spent virtually the rest of the day having an interview, pre-surgical testing and finally home after 5:00 p.m. On the way home, I had grocery shopping to do and stopped and got only the basics, got home, greeted and let Tibbe out to potty, got a shower and lay down on the couch under the heated throw to rest. I must have gone almost immediately to sleep because the next thing I know it's 1:44 a.m. and Tibbe is frantically going in circles he needed to potty so badly. Went right back to sleep as soon as we got back in and slept until about 7:45 a.m. this morning.

Sorry I didn't respond before now but have been talking to family and friends and trying to arrange things this morning.

Thank you all for your prayers and kind thoughts and checking in on me. It means so much to me.

I am glad that you doing Ok. I guess I was wrong, I thought you were having the surgery yesterday. Yes there is a lot of paper work and pre surgical testing, blood work and other things to do.
Radiation won't be so bad. It just tires you out. I will continue prayers for you.
