I'M OUT OF TIME!

We're less than 24 hours until my surgery and I'm about running out of time to answer messages and return calls and do a bunch of stuff that just ain't gonna get done at this point! I'm good with that. We've done a lot this week.

I'll be devoting most of the evening to getting in one last workout (as it will be a few weeks before I can) having a great meal (in case my sense of smell goes) relaxing, and being with my family.

I've said it a lot this week and will say it again when I get home, but thank you. Your kind words, prayers, encouragement, gifts, contributions, and support have been overwhelming.

I've always believed that virtual community is true community, that it is powerfully connecting and deeply meaningful. You've all reminded me of that over the past couple of weeks.

You all have given the book such an amazing kickoff since Tuesday, and I would be grateful if you would continue to boost it while I'm in the ICU, as this first week is critical. I want the world to read this book.

I've prescheduled posts for the next three days, so don't worry, I will not be tweeting on pain meds!

My wife will post surgery and recovery updates here until I am well enough to post myself.

Again, thank your for the "living eulogy" you've given me this week, and for the support and love you've shown me and my family.

On the very remote possibility that my surgery goes horribly wrong, please enjoy the present moment, love one another, and vote out all Republicans.

(Even if my surgery does not go horribly wrong, please still do those things.)

Love and Peace, friends.

John
