Some thoughts..

Well, it is almost time.

Gonna try and sleep a few hours tonight and then drive to Regina in the morning. Will leave at about 4 AM to be at the hospital by 6:15. Surgery begins at 8:00 and will hopefully conclude at about 6:00 PM. I will be awake for the first 8 hours and then out for the last 2. The implant will not be turned on tomorrow. They will be tested to make sure they are working but not turned on or "tuned" until 3 - 4 weeks from now after my brain has recovered from the surgery. I will spend the night in the ICU hooked up to a "brazillion" monitors to ensure there are no complications with the implants. If the body does not accept them, they will have to come out relatively quickly.

Kind of in lala land right now. Not sure what to think or feel but I am staying positive.

Connie will update the blog tomorrow when needed but don't expect to hear allot before 6:00 PM.

Well folks, that's all for now.

You will probably hear from me again on Saturday. Take care everyone.
