UCLA Journal 6

Well, it's almost 1:00 am. My surgery is scheduled for 7:00. I've had my sterilizing shower, washed my hair (who knows when I'll get to THAT again). I've been told the surgery takes from 6 to 8 hours. After I'm in recovery and am stabilized (another 5 or 6 hours) they'll take the breathing tube out but keep me pretty much sedatied for the first couple days. So, unless a transplant comes in and bumps me again (like wednesday), I won't be "talking" to you for a few day, maybe a week. Thanks again for all you love and prayers and right back at you...
