I'm in Florida!
Hey Everyone, My husband and I arrived in Florida a couple of hours ago. We are staying on the beach and it is awesome here! We so lucked out on a great room, with a balcony facing the ocean. I think it will be the perfect healing place
Tomorrow is all hospital registration and dr's office. I am glad I will be busy and won't be fretting about having surgery. Thanks for all the prayers and support and I will be updating you all as soon as I am able to.Kathy
