Final appointments were today: anesthesiology, clinical research (they want my excised heart tissue to study, as well as to enter me in a randomized study of the merits of fresher-than-standard blood should I need a transfusion; I said yes to both), pre-op nurse, and the surgeon, Dr. Smedira. For Dr. Smedira, this will be a simple and relatively unchallenging procedure given his expertise and my age and general condition.
Ultimately the day yielded no real news to speak of, just a lot of tedious instructions.
Thanks to everyone who has voiced their support via comments or e-mail, and to the lurkers who haven't but who are with me spiritually. It means the world to me.
Jenn will take over status updates for the next few days. See you on the other side!
Take care,
Michael
