And a prayer request, folks.
While he's said "This ain't Oprah," I've spilled my guts here, and this is another one of those times.
Tomorrow my beloved husband goes under the knife for Lap-Band surgery. To those who noticed his comment somewhere about the "pre-surgical liquid diet," that's why.
I know it's laparoscopic, I know it's only one day, I know it's been done without complication thousands of times, I know it will make a huge difference in his quality of life and, by association my own, I know.
That doesn't change the fact that my best friend is going under general anesthesia and getting cut open, my kids will be with someone else for the day (regardless of how much I trust her, there's still that worry), and all the rest.
So, if you Gentle Readers could on this day of the March for Life just tack a prayer on for us, I'd really appreciate it.

Sending happy thoughts for both of you... Here's to a smooth and rapid recovery and many years of "My husband is soooo skinny..." jokes!
Praying.
Absolutely. :o)
Got my prayers...
Praying!
This is going to be a lot of work after the surgery, too, but I wish you folks all the success in the world. Just tell the kids not to jump on Daddy's stomach for a while.... :)
Good luck, Dale. You'll be svelte in no time.
Prayers on the way. Give Dale my best. And hang in there yourself. We'll be praying for you too. And the kids

Of course I'll pray. He's a good guy.

Coming late to the prayer parade, but offering up one anyway! From a brother in the weight-loss surgery world...minus 150 pounds via gastric-bypass!
Also offering up my belated prayers. Good luck on the recovery.
You all will be in my prayers!
Remember that Jesus is the Great Physician, and he never lets you go.
Praying.
