Your thoughts and prayers please...

On Monday June 28th, my wife will go into surgery to have her left knee replaced / reconstructed. Two years ago almost to the day, she had her right done. She has some health issues that made her last stay quite eventful.

I will say that her doctors did a fantastic job on her knee and she hasn't had any issues with it.

On the same day, assuming that my daughter doesn't deliver my first grandchild before then, she will be admitted into a hospital in Illinois and she will be induced into labor so young Mr. James Dale Johnson can enter the world.

Needless to say, Monday will be a nail biter and there's not a damned thing I can do for either one for them.

If I was going under the knife and being knocked out, I would feel better having someone I loved and trusted watching over me and the operating room.
