Coming Home

Okay, here's the deal. Ramona has the second MRI this afternoon at 3:45...it's probably better not to ask too many questions...for some reason someone miscommunicated about Ramona needing two and so they are scanning the armpit tumor today....anyway...right now...we're at Joanna's house and I'm watching her and Ramona make lunch...smells pretty good from where I'm sitting...they're asking me to do stuff...I'll have to write for a long time...anyway...back to the title 'Coming Home'...I talked to Dr. Ferguson yesterday...and he said that surgery would likely not be next week, but the week after...either way he will only look at the MRI's after the weekend...so we booked a flight home for this evening...we'll arriving in Winnipeg at 12:30 tonight...so...whoever is reading in Manitoba...we'll see you soon...earl

p.s. The MRI will determine whether the surgeries will take 3 or 10 hours...that is the estimated range Dr. Ferguson gave us...which makes sense why he needs to see the MRI's before he books surgery...the shorter the surgery the sooner he can find room in his schedule...we really appreciate how serious he is about getting things done fast.

Hello Ramona & Earl,
Best wishes from your co-workers at the Arborg Hospital. We think of you often. I just learned of your blog today. It's wonderful you keep all informed this way.My sister Shelly is a dedicated reader and is without a computer today..so called me to get an update. We also play women's hockey with Becky..our star player!
Safe travels home tonight..we keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Here's hoping that surgery is booked quickly!

Any chance we might see you crazy kids on Sunday at the BCBC staff party?
