You people are wonderful. I appreciate all the support. I'm not afraid to have this done. They will punch holes in my abdomen and use, I think, a laproscope. I have the option of remaining awake or asleep. I chose sleep. I had laproscopy...or robot assist...surgery before and it was so easy.

The only problem is that they want me to quit smoking for the next 4 to 6 weeks. Considering that in the last year I have cut down from over a pack of cigs a day to six cigs a day...that's as low as I've been able to go.

@Lindy go grab one of these online or from a vape shop and you'll never need to pick up a cigarette. I know because I smoked for 10 years. Reproduces the same draw effect you get from a smoke
