Sharon had a pretty rough morning today. We "partied" until late last night and I believe she suffered the worse for it! Actually, we watched Monday Night Football and I stayed until the game was over. She did some paperwork, worked on the computer for a while and may have watched a couple of minutes of the game too. She had wanted me to come later and spend some of the later evenings with her. She was getting to bed too early and couldn't sleep. Last night disproved that theory in spades!
She did have a much better afternoon and evening. She perked up and actually felt rather good. I had dinner with her (the Beef Tip Stroganoff wasn't bad at all!) and stayed for a little while afterward. Actually, I want to get over there in the morning so I can be there when Dr Emerson comes by on rounds. He is likely to give us the next surgery schedule for the next step tomorrow and I would like to be there to get a few answers to some basic questions from him. Dr Baum came by this afternoon and said that she has come to the conclusion that they don't want to infuse the new spacer with the fungicide as originally planned. In lieu of this imbedding, she wants to continue the drip through the Pick line (super IV line!) instead. This is because there is no records of this having been done before. She is sure it has but there is no body of evidence to tell what works and what doesn't. She doesn't want to take the risk of experimenting with Sharon's case without some precedence or protocol having been set. There are just too many unknowns!
Had a nice visit with Ken Casto from Prestonwood BC again. Again, we appreciate these visits and have enjoyed getting to know Ken.
The Extended Stay is almost filled with evacuees from IKE. Many still don't know what the condition of their homes is. Word is beginning to slowly get to many of them but not to all yet. That just has to be a devestating feeling not to know. They feel pretty much in limbo and unable to make plans until they can get more information.
More later after the operation decisions are made.
Cheers
Joe

We have had a busy few days and I just now got to catch up on the hippy chronicles! sounds like you two have been whitewater rafting and hit a few waterfalls! Our prayers are certainly going up and will continue to go up daily.
We found out Jerry's Sig Det commander for his company and his wife are geocachers longer than us and they are polotrackers online! Jerry will have a new hunting buddy by day's end I am sure! They have been laying low for some time due to babies taking up time but the baby is 1 now and daddy is itching to get out!
We told them about this great couple that adopted us and will hopefully get to meet them at an event down the road!
May your day and week prove to be full of flatlands with cushy tires!
God's blessings on all 3 of you,
Tondi
