I most surely agree with the girls advice thus far. Eyes closed, something to help you relax, pain meds if you will be uncomfortable that way, and most importantly....a focal point. Try to keep those eyes closed and think of something that brings complete joy to your life. Hubby always thinks of Mookie, our Mine Wave cat. At first I said, "You do not think of me??". Of course he said "NO" and we chuckled as I realized how I rate!!! If he visualizes and concentrates, especially with the medication he barely hears the noise. Although I have a powerful mind, I am not that good!! Good luck Sweetie and keep us posted with the results. Prayers are going out to you special.>>Believe51
