     The Guardian Angels in my life set up this account for me, we will be using this account to help with my post op coordination, and heath updates
I will be going into Cleveland Clinic on May 6th to have open heart surgery...They will be doing something called THE DAVID PROCEDURE, Dr Tong will be the surgeon. I will probably be hospitalized for somewhere about a week.
    One of the tricky parts is that I live alone and might require some additional help and a prayer or too.
