Buck! Buck! Buck! part deux

Nikki is coming! Nikki is coming! I go in for surgery on Thursday and she will arrive from Germany that night (even though I told her not to come I'm glad she didn't listen to me). Sherry and her whole family have been incredibly supportive and I know they would take very good care of me, but having one of my girls here will make me feel so much better. To nurse someone through that first week after a major surgery is such an intimate interaction; it's always best done by the loving hands of immediate family. I'll be in the hospital until Sunday or Monday and then Nik will still be here for the first few days after I come home. I can't think of any better medicine!
