This is IT! Thinking of Beautiful Rainbows ...

Greetings Friends & Family!  


Wishing you all the happiest and most serene of days as I sail towards the OR this morning! I have yet to prep myself with the final antibacterial shower ... I was grateful to speak with an old friend from high school last evening, who had this surgery many moons ago when he was barely into his 30's, and who lives today a stronger, happier, and healthier man! Thank God for that! He validated my fears and gave me more courage than I dare have this morning!

Rainbows is what I was thinking of this morning upon waking ... rainbows. And that beats the alternative, right? I think thinking of rainbows upon wakening is a wonderful omen: one that assures me God is with me!
Thank you all for your continued support, prayers, and the love I feel surrounding me like a comforting, warm and fluffy blanket! I'm resting assured I will see you or hear from each and everyone of you on the flip side of this! It's true that no matter how routine this surgery is, when you are the candidate for the 'cabbage' or open-heart surgery ... the prospect is definitely scary and intimidating, indeed :) 


Until I can sing, as my cousin's open-heart surgeon sang to him a few years ago: "Welcome back, my friend, to the show that never ends ..." I bid you all an exciting and peaceful day!


Peace, Love, & Blessings to All ~
