    Finally a set date

    Hey folks there are a few on here that was curious about the status of whats going on, figure I would just send out a little not here.

    ON Oct 10th, I'll be having a very very risky surgery, This surgery will help release the preasure off my heart and allow my lung to fully expand for once in its life. Being an active person, been a difficult journey.. Not being able to do as much, I had surgery done in 2010 where the surgeon had removed the sternum without informing us and pulling My ribs closer together, why the orignal surgery, I had the PECTUS EVACTUM basically if you do a goodle search for Nuss Procedure You'll see what a pectus disease is, By removing My sternum and pulling my ribs in closer as pushed my heart into a non formal shape and also allowing the diaphram to slip over the ribs instead of sliding back n forth under the rib which cause alot of preasure and very very limited breathing capacity.

    So whats going to happen, since I had my chest gutted open once, I'm at risk for adhesion, So now my heart is stuck to the wall of My chest. with a very experince surgeon We've selected, he going to prepare to cut My midline section open and pull my ribs upward and crack a few of them, during this procedure is the most critical and dangerous part when sliding the saw upward to my collar bone, he will not be able to see where My heart is located until its too late. They are going to pry the heart down and away from the blade as they attempt to saw thru the mid line of my chest to allow them to again open the chest and snap a few ribs so when they heal they will heal in a new shape, once they have it open and cleared I've a very experince Pediatric surgeon that is going to put in place a fake sternum and widen my chest just a tad bit more to allow the heart to feeling open and close without anymore restriction and also allow Me to take in My first FULL Breath in 47 years. he would then secure that piece in place and close me up. the hospital stay is approx 10 to 12 days, and recovery from this procedure will be approx 2 months.

    I asked that all My scrapper fans Keep Me in there prayers when I undergo this very risky surgery, I keep My head clear and always thinking positive.

    Thanks for all your in advance support and prayer.

    I'll be praying for you. Take advantage of the time you'll have recovering to think and read - and pray, as I'm sure you will. Look forward to seeing you back on here when you're able.
