Tomorrow, I talk to the surgeon again about what he is going to do on Wednesday. Then, I go for some standard tests to get ready. I'm also, just to be on the safe side, going for a breathing test with my pulmonary specialist tomorrow afternoon. My heart rate, rhythm, and blood pressure have been ideal for the past four weeks since the cardiologist helped me with heart rate and rhythm in the hospital at the end of my radiation treatments.
I've managed to gain about 6 pounds back since the end of radiation/chemo. My new weight is just about right because I will lose another 10-15 pounds from the upcoming surgery. I should complete recovery at about the ideal weight for someone my height.
Best of all, I shot an 83 for 18 holes at Pacific Grove Municipal on Friday. That's my best ever score! I'm eager to recover and get back out before I forget what I did.

I haven't weighed in before but I wanted to let you know that the twins are praying for you too. I'm sure you'll come through the surgery with flying colors 'Mr. 83'.
