Hello Peeps!! Been pretty busy lately, so I haven't been on here much. As you may or may not remember I am having a Cornea transplant on Thursday in Kennewick WA, and I just wanted to give you guys a heads up to keep me in your thoughts for the next few days, lol. Not a terribly long procedure, only about 30 minutes from what I have been told, but I won't be "under" just doped up and my eye numbed. My Mom has has this surgery on both eyes and said it was one of the most painful things she has endured, and she gave birth to my big a$$, so I am pretty excited for that, lol. Just wanted to stop by and let my Polk Audio Family know what was going on, you guys have been very supportive of me in the past and I thank you for that. Have a good/safe 4th of July weekend and "see" you guys soon.

    Good luck Jeff and make sure they give you good stash of drugs for the pain.

    Me and my family will pray for you and a quick recovery. Whew, my prayer list is as long as my arm LOL!!! But it keeps me at relative peace.

    Couldn't agree more with Joe and Freddy, Jeff....ESPECIALLY about the painkillers. Yes there is a place for drugs in our society and this IS IT!

    Best wishes and thoughts on your surgery Jeff...I hope your Mom is wrong about this one...at least for you!

    Good Luck and a speedy recovery...we have to get those Monitor 10s pumping to help with the 'healing'!
