This picture Don made yesterday at the convention center. This huge fireplace is right in the lobby when you first go into the building. It’s a great roaring fire; it’s gas logs, but it looks very real.
Today we stayed close in the condo and visited. We spent some time working on some the computer, and that went really slow, but it got some work done. Tomorrow Ruthie and Phil will head for home, so we called it a short day so they could get some rest before making a long trip home. It’ll probably take them 9 hours or so.
Tomorrow is the day that my brother, Jim, has his surgery for NPH. They’ll put a shunt in his head to drain the water from his brain. We are so praying that this will alleviate his symptoms and restore his life to a much better quality. His surgery is at 8 in the morning, at Vanderbilt in Nashville; we’re hoping to hear from them around noon that his surgery went well. We should know within a week or so if there is improvement. Jim is the same age as Phil and Don, so his life should be similar to theirs. We’re sure praying for a successful surgery for him and a safe trip home for Ruthie and Phil.
