update on Avis (theissard)

Hi all,

Avis's second surgery has been rescheduled for today, Feb 18th. God is good. I'm just sorry I won't be able to meet Avis in person, as we are now in Florida and won't be home in time to stop in to see her before she goes home.

Hi all,
I'm two days late with this update from Howard, but better late than never.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another letter from this guy? Tired of hearing from me yet?

Avis is out of surgery and in recovery. I have not spoken with
her but her surgeon called me to let me know that it went
well. He seemed very pleased and it did not take as long as
he planned. I think it was closer to seven hours rather than
the scheduled ten.

She will once again stay in the ICU and have a private nurse
until tomorrow. The plan is to remain at the hospital until
at least Sunday but after that I don't know yet. We may
not know for a few days. It will depend on her progress.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's all for now. Sally

Thanks for the update!

Here I be

This my last night at Coolidge House. Not the greatest place for rehab but then again, it's not the worst. I arrived here on Monday. I cannot write much now but wanted to at least say hello. I have never seen so many incompetent people in one place.
I just asked for apple juice and was given a towel.
Must lay down. Later.

It's great to hear from you, Avis-- but I'm so sorry your experience there hasn't been good. Looking forward to hearing more when you're doing better. Gentle hugs, Susie

Hi Avis,
I have been thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. We arrived home Friday evening, (just in time for another snow storm) and I have been out of touch with our computer. I am so sorry your experience at the Cooledge House has been so bad. When will you be going home? Soon, I hope, but if not, I will try to get into Boston to see you. Take care. Gentle hugs from me too. Sally
