Christian -- From one lawyer to another (or rather one soon to be lawyer to another) best of luck to you and Jill tomorrow. Given the responses you've received all over this site, its quite clear to me that you've made an impact on most who visit here. I'm positive there will be plenty of prayers out there for Jill on tuesday.
Best,
Joe

Jill,
Jill,
You will be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow. It has been two years since I was at the Cleveland Clinic but unfortunately it still feels like yesterday! The people are wonderful there, don't get me wrong, but I don't want to go through heart surgery again any time soon.
The black nurses kept calling me "boo" - I guess that is a more modern term for "honky" - I don't know - I am very fair - blue-eyed and blond, but I thought that was very sweet believe it or not and is one of my fondest memories from CC. They also would say God bless you and tried to urge me to get out of bed all the time. The entire staff at Cleveland -on down to the housekeeping staff, were so caring and friendly.
Hope you get to meet Dr. Cosgrove. I stayed awake before the surgery just so I could see the guy face-to-face. I was crying when he walked into the operating room and he said, "Oh, I make all the women cry" and then said, "We are going to take good care of you." Next thing I knew I was waking up in the ICU.
Hope you get your private room - it will make all the difference in the world in your recovery.
Godspeed - Christian, my thoughts are with you also.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. We're shutting down the computer and leaving for Cleveland in about five minutes. 
Cheers.

Just in case you get called "boo" - it means "girlfriend" I believe. Just looked it up on the internet. That is too funny, as Wayne and I agreed it must mean that I looked like a "ghost" as I am pale to begin with and after surgery was even more pale. It doesn't mean that at all.
It is an endearing term.
You may be gone already, headed to Cleveland. Keep us updated. There will be computers in the hospital.
FYI:
boo
1. Your boyfriend/girlfriend. "Dat's my boo your messin' wit!"

I know you have left for Cleveland already but I had to post to let you know that I am thinking of you and Jill. I will send out special prayers for an uneventful recovery. I'm sure everything will go quite smoothly. She's in great hands. Please let us know how she is doing. I know I'll be checking constantly just to see when the surgery is over and how she is.
God Bless & Take Care!

Jill & Christian,
All the best for tomorrow, it sounds like you're both going in with the right attitude. I'm sure being positive is the best preparation. Plus of course all the hundreds of prayers and good thoughts coming your way .
Looking forward to seeing you on the sunny side of the mountain.
