Bob's 2006 ING NYC Marathon Blog

My name is Bob Scofield and I live in Manhattan. I am running the NYC Marathon with the New York Road Runners Foundation Team for Kids. We raise funds for running programs for at risk kids here in New York City and other places around the country. To donate for this great cause follow the below link on the right (Internet Explorer users may need to scroll down to the bottom - thanks Bill Gates!). Don't forget to input my entrant number, 20832 and name Robert Scofield. The kids and I thank you!!

Going Under the Knife

Tomorrow, Friday December 22, I will undergo surgery at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, NY. They are going to take that pesky cyst out of my jaw, and the tube that was in there the past several months to irrigate it. Hopefully things will go well. There is a small risk of damaging the nerves in there which could cause me to lose feeling in my face, either temporarily or permanently. That is something that has me really worried. :-(

All right, I have to focus on eating & drinking, I have 27 minutes before I am supposed to start fasting and as those of you who have dined with me are aware, I am a very slow eater. Wish me luck!
