Phone calls from Milwaukee

The surgeon and anesthesiologist have both called this weekend to talk to mom and let her know their plans.  She's been able to express concerns she has and she is very happy about that.  The surgeon on Saturday was reviewing her slides and working through his plan.  I will be updating the blog during the surgery as the doctors update us.  So keep checking back. 

Grammy, Granddad, brother Terry, and his wife, Jeannea, Dad and I will be accompanying here to Milwaukee for surgery.  Once she is on her own and out of ICU I will return to work and home then back for the weekend to get her home and settled in.  Aunt Janell will come for the weekend and help get her settled in at home then she will return after the first week at home.  Dad bought her a bunch of Harley Davidson scarves and jammies.  

We are celebrating her birthday during the 3rd National at the Springfield Mile this weekend.  Things are starting to pick up here so I should do something productive...Yeah, this is easier and less work.  Ha!  

We've been busy and had lots of folks stop by with well wishes.  Thank you!  It's also been a lot of fun because her cousin Lolita and her husband, her college roommate as well as others have all come by and said hello.  I'm sure I'm leaving a lot of people out but know that we appreciate it all.  Send this out to all of those who need to know where to find information and/or know my mom.  

Here's some pictures from her special day.
