One of my closest friends, Nada - is scheduled for her heart valve repair/replacement on Thursday in Ann Arbor. Nada has survived a couple of bouts of cancer, and so many other illnesses because of the cancer. This is *hopefully* her last go of surgeries to make her feel like she used to...back in the day. She is the greatest and my hope for her is to come out of this a completely different person - health-wise - so she join me at the gym and more importantly, so she can actually walk around for more than 2 minutes without catching her breath.
Please pray as hard and often as you can for my friend this week. She's terrified of the upcoming surgery and you know, I don't blame her. When I went in for my heart surgery, I was just as scared. I keep telling her (and myself) that the medical world has advanced from years past, but you know there's always that shred of doubt.
Thanks everyone :)
P.S. After looking at this picture, I am shocked at how much I've changed (weight-wise)...holy moly! And why didn't anyone tell me my hair was horrid? Sheesh!

Nada is such a sweetheart. I enjoyed meeting her last month. I WILL be praying for her peace and success!
You can be sure I will be asking our Holy Father to give peace of mind to Nada. And that HE would guide the hands of the doctors. She can rest in the arms of Jesus and let her care be carried on His willing shoulders. And yea! you sure do look better, but I don't get the hair comment you have always had cute doos. Love ya Sista....tmp
my prayers are with Nada, trust that God will provide her strength to come out of her surgery better than ever. Good Luck thursday.
Keep up the good work at the gym, you can tell from this pic you have made progress! and dude if I would have seen this pic sooner I would have told you to do something other than that with your hair! HA!!
