Hey Deb,
Sending you lots of good wishes. I think of you a lot and keep asking God to send his angels to stand with and support you. I know that soon all these trials will be a thing of the past and you and Dale will be home.

Just had a short conversation with Zipper.
Her blood pressure has been down a little bit but she was able to get it back up last night, I asked her "who did you talk to that got your BP up?" she laughed like hell.
She is also able to take her camera into the ER - "a strange request" the surgeon said "do you want pictures while your open or closed?" So I guess they will be taking pictures.
Surgery is for 6:30am Thursday.
So until Pamela talks to Deb that's all I know.
Keep the prayers coming.

oooops, missed that - sorry - I must have had a senior moment or something. Thanks for letting me know Bina, and the "hopefully" goes automatically with every date that Zipper gets!
Deb,
Continued positive thoughts and prayers coming your way. We are all rooting for you!

Hello all you patient and caring friends! I just spoke with Zipper and she confirmed that they'll be prepping her for the OR around 6:00 or 6:30 for movement to the surgical suite at 7:00 am Mtn time, or so.
She's very calm, very confident in her surgeon and is commonly referred to as The Adventurer. We were joking about how many papers Dr Modry and his team will be getting published as a result of all this. He figures there'll be a few pics on that camera before the morning's over.
I passed her all of your prayers and wishes, even though I didn't list everyone's names, she knows that all of VR is pulling for her and that we're in all of her fellow journeyer's corners too. She sends her best to everyone and will be posting to you next week when she gets home.
I'll open the new thread after I talk to the hospital tomorrow. Dale will let me know when she's gone through the double doors and then I'll call the ward in the early afternoon to check how things are going.
Take Heart, everyone, thanks for your kindness to Zipper and her family AND especially for the support you show everyone who has this "adventure".

10.15 here, I think mountain is 2 hours difference, so hopefully things are well under way (as long as that is the time difference is right). Anyway, just checking in, and will continue to do so.
Pamela, you are doing a grand job, many thanks for the updates; Freddie too - loved the bit about her eating her last bag of chips! My parents took DH and I out for supper the night before mine, and as I sat down in the restaurant I mumbled something about the last supper, or the condemned eating a hearty meal My mother was shocked, but I was about right - that was Wednesday, and I didn't get anything solid until Monday after lunchtime!

Hi all, let's move to post-surgery now. Deb's op began an hour ago at 720. I'll be calling the hospital around 2pm for an update.

Wonderful to hear Pamela. I will check back in later to read your update. Deb will be in my prayers all this morning. I think it will be a long conversation with God.
