Good morning!

(In my best Robin Williams voice...) Gooooood Moorrrrrning Everyone!

So it is 6:15 a.m. here. We got up at 5:30 (not a huge deal for Dee Dee, but not my cup of tea!), and headed across the street to the the hospital. It is currently -13 degrees here in lovely downtown Rochester. Brisk! Officially awake now!

Not much to update. Dee Dee is pretty much dreading this day. I talked with her primary doc last night by phone (he called me on my cell at ~10:00 p.m.), and we feel pretty good about things being back on track. I think. Dee Dee's not saying much on that front, so maybe it is just me who feels better?

By the way, how weird is it that here in Rochester, where almost every single person we see is caucasian (and most look like vikings - tall and blonde), there are 5 Muslim television stations, and one Somali station? They have al Jazeera on 24/7, for example. There is one channel that has Muslim soap opera, talk shows, etc. Just strikes me as strange!

More later. Her test is 45 minutes, so it may be nap time.

Tony, while I trust that you could "do" that voice, I have trouble visualizing you as Robin Williams! I hope you got a bit of a nap --- that early-morning arising would not suit me, either. That was good of the primary doc to call you last night --- tells me you all have chosen wisely in that regard, too.

Continuing to pray for all things that you need today to go smoothly, including the afternoon consultation, and then the much-anticipated flight home, and for your precious children waiting patiently (or not) back at home. I'm picturing all of you carried safely in God's arms throughout this journey.
Love you,
Linda Lee

p.s. When I was in Rochester 8 years ago, that TV station anomaly struck me, too --- couldn't quite figure out where those viewers were?
