Carla Kay's surgery

[Guest guest]

Dear Group,

I'm leaving today to go up to Denver to meet up with Carla before

her surgery Monday. She has had a busy week traveling from West

Virginia on Wednesday, Appointment with Kumar thursday and an MRI.

Yesterday she just stayed at her hotel and rested, and today Lee,

Dr. Kumar's assistant is taking her out sightseeing for the day. She

and I are having a BBQ at my daughter's house tomorrow, an easy day,

so she can get back to her hotel early to get a good night's rest

before surgery. I'm picking her up and taking her to the hospital

Monday morning along with her young daughter. Lee and I are taking

care of her daughter Angel, since she doesn't have anyone here or at

home to care for her. I will come home tuesday morning, since I

still have a family to care for, and I live a good distance from

Denver. I'll go back up Friday, and depending on how she does,

she'll either go back to her hotel Monday or to Rehab.

It will be weird for me to be the one waiting at the hospital while

someone has surgery, I'm more used to being the one being cut on. I

have a huge book to read, Bill Clinton's auto biography, I'm only

three chapters in and it's huge, he's remembers more about junior

high and writes about it, than any of us do. I'm expecting she'll be

in surgery at least ten hours. I'll update you as soon as I get home

since I won't have computer access till then.

Send your good thoughts and prayers her way, she sure could use it,

and I thank you all for your support!
