Sue's surgery is coming up at the end of this week. I just wanted to say we'll be thinking of you. I hope the recovery and PT is easy and quick!

goodluck

I appreciate all the prayers. When the surgery was scheduled, it seemed a long way off and now here it is. I will be glad when it is over and then have the other knee fixed. I hope it will be fairly soon. Of course, that will depend on how I do and I know I will do great!

Tomorrow is the big day. I will see you all next week and let you know if I am up and dancing.
