Best wishes for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery.  If I'm not mistake, it's a translab, right?
Keep us posted.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.

  Thank you for your well wishes.   This will be mid fossa.      ( I have had a previous mid fossa and translab and leak repair on the other side).          Hopefully the acoustic nerve will be saved for a May cochlear implant.   Time will tell.             
We leave tomorrow afternoon to go to Iowa City as it is a 2 1/2 hr drive.              One daughter has been instructed on how to post here to let everyone know how it is going.
            I appreciate everyones good thoughts and I have some special AN angels who have been very good to me.                                   Thank you to everyone.

Best of luck, Cheryl.  You're in my thoughts and prayers. 

Thanks for showing your daughter how to post in your absence; you knew we'd worry about you  :)

And, David, thanks for reminding us.  I know we have the handy-dandy calendar now, but I keep forgetting to consult it.

Thanks Jan
I'll do my best to stay on top of it.  But just as a reminder to all of you who are new who have upcoming surgeries and procedures and consultations and anniversaries -- please put them on the calendar so we can all be there for you.  I'd have to check, but I think Debbi is next up on April 30 for a boggerectomy.
