First off, thanks so much for all of the wonderful good wishes, positive vibes, visits, cards, goodies, plants and messages.  I felt the love and I thank you very much.  My knee surgery went very well at least I think so, I have a follow-up two week appointment with my surgeon this coming week (Thursday), so I'll know more then and have the staples removed.
