Day of surgery: 4:50am

Well, I am awake, dressed and ready (kind of), with coffee in hand for the day ahead. Jimmy is laying in bed watching TV, Jake is still asleep as is Max, the puppy. Let me just say that your thoughts and prayers are already helping, I am not as nervous at this point as I thought I would be. Jimmy, of course, is as cool as a cucumber.

We had a lovely dinner all together last night at Pappadeaux's Seafood Kitchen. Since we are near the coast we just HAD to have some fresh seafood. It was yummy!! Jimmy and I tried oysters on the half-shell for the first time. (I might add, only because my dad ordered 2 dozen!) They weren't bad at all. A little slimy, but otherwise tasteless, unless you pack on the sauces. Nothing like a little horseradish to clear the sinuses! Jimmy's parents and Jake just sat and watched us eat them. Mom even had a few. We laughed and Jimmy joked, much to my and his mother's dismay, that we should all sit on either side of him cause it's his last supper. If you can get past the blasphemy of it and if you know Jimmy at all, it was quite funny. Unsettling, but funny.

So, sit tight. I will be updating throughout the day.
