Les,
While I've never met you, I've read many of your posts. Have a great
time on the cruise! May your surgery be nothing but beneficial and your
recovery time go quicker than predicted. I'm looking forward to your
cruise review. As for a review of the surgery...as long as it doesn't
look like a surgery scene from "Nip/Tuck". Those are a little too real
for me. What am I thinking?! You'll be out during the procedure, you
couldn't possibly.... Oh, Never mind. Positive wishes. Healing thoughts...
