Surgery


And because I'd be really remiss if I posted about the haunted house without talking about something way more important, I'm going to talk about something that's way more important.  My darling wife is going in for yet another abdominal surgery on Monday, November 7th.  She'll be going in to NY City to the Beth Isreal hospital where two surgeons will be working on removing what they suspect is a piece of mesh from a previous surgery. 

It may be a same day surgery, though they will likely keep her overnight.  There will likely be a wound vac machine in place for some time as they try to get the infection to clean out and heal over completely before they close her up.

Thirtheenth time's the charm?  Here's hoping.

This means we will not be able to make the 2020 Vision Quest Peak Potential Auction/Dinner.  This does NOT mean that you should skip it just because we can't make it.  It is for a very good cause and a lot of fun beside.  I'm really disappointed to be missing it.  So if you haven't already, go out there and buy your tickets.

Back to normal... well, normal for me

So after far too many days of being either fatigued beyond functionality or laid out by migraine, I'm back to my abnormal self.  Thanks for all the well wishes.

Now, on to a topic near and dear to my heart, by dear brother Randy and the charities he supports, Guiding Eyes for the Blind and the New Hampshire Association for the Blind.  It's that time of year again for the annual dinner and auction on Saturday, November 12.  Last year was a grand time; marvelous company, great food a really fun auction.  If you can't come, then maybe you can donate items or services for the auction.

In any case, for more information or to buy tickets, please visit their site at http://2020visionquest.org/index.html.

It's coming up soon and I hope to see a lot of you there.  Chime in if you're already going.  Maybe your presence will be the one that sways others into going too and please boost the signal.  It's for a great cause, even if I am biased.
