Dr. Tamurian met with us this morning and went over everything having to do with the surgery scheduled for Tuesday, 11/29. We discussed how he's going to be making one incision at the top of my Humerus and they'll be running the titanium rod (which they kept referring to as a nail) down through the bone to basically the elbow area. Apparently they do this operation all the time, which is really unfortunate and made me sad when he told me. I also got to meet "Mike" his assistant who will be joining him during the operation. I already told John, but geeze, they've got some good looking surgeons at Sutter!
I'm still supposed to show up at 10:00, although we'll get started at 12:00 and the entire operation will take about two hours. He said that he would expect that my recovery time will take a couple weeks.
Peace to you all ~ Love, Genie

Good morning, Genie: Your sharing of the pre-op meeting is SO encouraging to help you 'relax' and let these HUNKY guys 'do their thing'. there's nothing wrong with your liking the good looks of these HUNKS, as long as you're also confident with their technical ability, which it sounds like they have. LET'S GO!!!!!
