I want to thank all of you for your prayers. My daughter's first operation went very well and she is visiting with her children today. She has 2 more to go in the next 2 weeks. Then she will do the chemo. Such fun, not. Meanwhile, on the 25 I will be at the Parkinson's Institute in Sunnyvale getting evaluated. Maybe they will tell me I do not really have PD?? Not too much chance of that. However, it will be good to be seen and evaluated by a movement specialist. I am not changing doctors, but am doing this with my current neuro's blessing. When I first brought it up, he immediately said, "have them send me a copy of the report, please." So, I will meet Carol and see the institute. Then, when I come back from there I will have pre-op on the 27th and surgery on the 1st. Nothing too serious, just an ulner neuropathy in my right elbow. This is the same surgery I had nearly a year and a half ago. But, this time it is the right arm, where my main tremor is and I am right handed. So much fun we in my family get to have in the next month, not. I know that when I come back from Sunnyvale my e-mail box will be full, but that is ok. I will get through it somehow.
