eeny-meeny-miney-mo
It was not as simple as eeny-meeny-miney-mo.....I thought and prayed and thought and prayed and finally decided that for me, the best option is surgery, the radical prostatectomy. My prostate and seminal vessicules will be removed during the surgery. It is a decision that my wife and family and friends totally support and once told, my docs agreed they too think it is the best option for me. With my current pathology and age and overall good health condition, it should leave me with the best results. So, one big hurdle is conquered. I felt better immediately after I said the words to the doc, I want to do the surgery. Now, how to make the schedules work. I have already planned a trip to the beach with my sons and grandchildren to fish, we do it every year actually. That was going to be Oct 30th thru Nov 5th and then I was taking Momma and Daddy to Norfolk, Va for a USNavy function for retired personnel that would keep be busy til late on Sunday Nov 9th. So....I asked Dr Polsky's wonderful scheduling person, Jennifer, to set me up anytime Nov 12 or after. Within a few day, Jennifer called to confirm everything was set for Nov 12 at 7:00am at Lake Normal Regional Medical Center in Mooresville. I was so glad, I had a plan and so the clock could start the count-down.
