Pre-Op Appointment

Got through the morning, okay.  Asked lots of questions about meds, anesthesia, and alternative approaches about which I've been reading and learning.  I haven't posted anything this last week or so because it has been very agonizing sifting through lots of information on different approaches to dealing with cancer.  I'm still struggling with the reality of it all.  I guess it will all sink in when I wake up from surgery.

I am glad for the opportunity to learn more about cancer and the many different possibilities on why we get it and how to deal with it.  There are many things I need to consider changing in my lifestyle and how I take care of myself, those I love and on whom I have an influence.

Good friends lost their family pet today.  Loss has such an impact on us.  It makes time stand still.  Hopefully, it reminds us of what's important, what really has eternal value.

I am so grateful for all of the cards, notes, texts, phone calls and messages I am receiving from many of you.  I wish I could respond to them all.  Please know that they make a difference, encourage me and are more important that you may know.

  2. Hi Mila,
    The Texas Bouldin's continue to pray for you and your family. The surgery is tomorrow and so we are all praying that the surgery brings the best possible outcome for you. We are asking for God's protection all the way.
