Nancy and I caravaned with her parents up to Portland today. We came up a day before the surgery because Nancy needs to prep. for the surgery. She need to report to the surgery department at 6AM tomorrow morning. Sounds early, but in the world of surgery, the earlier, the better (fresh surgeon, less pressured by the schedule). My motel room has internet so that I will be able to report what is going on. Send love and good energy tomorrow from 7AM (PT) thru the day. Thank you all for the support; it means a lot to us.

Who's taking care of the Beau dog? Oma is-thanks, Mom.

Love and peace to all of you,

Franz
