I can't stay at the puter long, but will say that I and the missus really appreciate all the prayers and well wishes expressed here and other places.
the operation went well and I am not in nearly as much pain as I was. The pain now is from all the cutting.
Final testa are not back (bi-opsies for cancer) but the Dr doesn't think there is any danger of that.
Thanks again for all the moral and spiritual support
