I am going into surgery this morning at 10:45. I will be in surgery for 3 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours. This is sinus surgery and they will be operating close to my eyes and dangerously close to what little brain I have. They even told me that there is a chance they could damage my eyes and or nick my brain. Just wanted to get a few more prayers going up. I will update on the results as soon as I am coherent enough to do so.

Thanks
