Good luck Steve!I am sure you will do just fine.Just remember that this is a major surgery and it will take a while before you start to feel better.How long are they saying you will be in the hospital?James was in for five days.Dont be surprised to be in a lot of pain Steve.But it will get better with each day.Do you have someone to help you out at home?Hopefully they will give you all the little toys to help you out(the grabber thing thats like a long tweezer,the sock puller,etc.)they really help out when you first get home.We will be praying for you.Take care Steve and God bless.
