Here We Go !!


   Well here we go, hopefully we have dotted all the I’s and crossed the T’s to get ready for this surgery. This week we got to speak in depth with both the ENT surgeon {Dr. John Coniglio }, and the Plastic Surgeon { Dr Vega } about the operation and how everything will work . Both crews took plenty of time to answer our questions and it seems like everything is in place. Both crews will work simultaneously and it looks like the surgery should take around 8 hours. We have the first surgery spot of the day on Monday, {7.30 AM } and will need to be at the hospital around 6.00 AM, so put that good vibe out in the morning !  

     This week Peg and I have been working hard to try to finish up the recording part of a new CD we have been working on. I am not sure how long it will be before I am able to sing & play again so there has been a bit of a sense of urgency. One of the songs we have been working on is a song I wrote about my cancer experience; “You Are What You Dream”. This song has taken on a whole new relevance to me going into the surgery. I put together a mix and have put it up on Box .net so you can listen or even download the song if you would like. Here is the link.


    Thanks again for all your kind words and support, I can’t tell you how much it means to Peggy and I. Peg will try to post to the blog on Monday night after the surgery, and I will try to post a little while I am in the hospital next week. Here’s to strong hearts, talented doctors, a successful day in the OR, and a swift recovery !
