Eugene, I know that you and Wifey are pretty anxious right now. That is expected, but I want to try and encourage you to focus on the positives, like the quick diagnosis, the really short surgery wait time, having a top-field surgeon who is doing this type of surgery (by your numbers) every 3rd day. This is awesome and praiseworthy! If you can, pray. Know that I and my Wife, my friends from Church, WILL be praying for peace for you two. And for a successful outcome. You may feel alone, but clearly you are not.

That's a lot to take in and a lot to deal with. I hope you all can get some rest and take it one day at a time. Of course you're there for your wife, but be sure you've got someone to talk to also. Keep your spirits up and try not to dwell too much on it. Find some fun distractions in the meantime. You have a lot of people here praying for you two as well.

Prayers for you and your wife. Don't know how I could handle something like that, hope I'd be as strong as you are.

Also - when something like this happens, we always find out how many others are suffering tremendous challenges and pain. I think of it as the vaccination against "why me?" sorts of thinking, and focusing on what must be done as well as cherishing what we do have.
Exactly how I thought when I became a quadriplegic. Again best wishes to you, your wife, and family.

This really brings home what is actually important in our lives. So sorry to hear you are going through this together. My wife had a tumor removed from her overy last week that turned out to be benign, so I can understand what you are going through. Saying a prayer for you both. Keep your chin up, and please let us know how Tuesday goes.

I don't have the words. I am keeping you and your family in my thoughts and I hope this goes as smoothly as possible. I recall when my father in law went in for a triple by pass. My wife was devastated and was too scared to focus on anything but the worst possible outcome... 15 years later he is still very much with us and in excellent health

Good luck, Eugene. You and yours will be in my prayers.
