Good luck with the surgery. I am sure everything will go just fine. Good news is that you have lots of SD support in your area to help out!

yes she did but was only able to pick me up and the clinic said they needed someone to be there during the whole time not sure why I thought thats what they get paid for but what am I.

and i want to appologize to all if my last post sounded like i was ranting plz understand i was franticly trying to find a solution to my delima and was getting worried that i would have to cancel the procedure which i didnt want to chance the problem getting worse. which is a real possibility

I absolutely understand......I went through the same thing with some surgery...my neice told them she would be in the waiting room and went to her classes....when I came out of it enough to use a cell phone..she came and picked me up...( of course she wasn't too far away) but what ar ethey going to do at that point but leave you in bed until someone gets there....When is surgery scheduled for???

As I already found out while I was out of commission, the diving will still be here when you are ready. We will be waiting for you. Best of wishes.

Rant away -- you should have heard me rant when I was sick before having my last surgery. The medical profession can be very difficult to deal with at times - and the frustration can be immense.

Good luck and take good care of yourself.

I would help but the commute would be a bugger -- and at the gas milage my truck gets -- expensive! :banghead:
