Leaving for Surgery at Mayo Clinic: Please Pray!

In summary, the Mayo Clinic is a highly regarded nonprofit medical practice and research group that specializes in complex and rare medical conditions. They accept most major insurance plans, but it is best to confirm coverage before undergoing surgery. The clinic will provide specific instructions on how to prepare for surgery, which may include fasting and stopping certain medications.

Leaving tomorrow for the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. I am having surgery on Tuesday, March 13th. They will remove the bones in each jaw joint and wire my mouth shut for 2 months while the artificial joints are made. Then I will go back to have them put in and will be wired shut again for 2 months.
Please say a prayer. I will be in the hospital 7-10 days.
Thanks so much!
 
sending thoughts your way. Hope you feel better soon and all goes well.
 
You are definitely in our prayers. May the Lord give you the strength and patience you need to get through the next 4 months.
 
Oiy! Praying for you!

Thanks so very much for the prayers for my surgery! I am back home now. BUT there has been a complication......
the abdominal inscision....they had to take a fat graft to put in the jaw joints to hold them apart.....it burst open on Friday evening. Blood from a hematoma that had developed after the surgery began pouring out. The drs. decided to just let it drain and keep it covered with a dressing. I still have blood that is seeping through the dressings. This is so discouraging!!! I am going to call the drs. at the Mayo tomorrow morning and hopefully we can bring this to an end soon!!!
Thanks so much!!!!
