A Second Mastectomy and Reconstruction

Lois is scheduled for the second mastectomy, by choice, and full breast reconstruction surgery on July 9th, at Sacred Heart Medical Center, in Spokane. She will be in the hospital for five days. Everything we've discovered about the surgeons has been positive and uplifting (no pun intended).

But before we go to Spokane, we're going to Sequim for a family wedding. We will leave tomorrow, Thursday, July 3rd; and return on Sunday. That Monday, after the Sequim trip, Jim will mow the lawn and get ready to take her to Spokane the NEXT day. Jim will be holed up in a nearby hotel in Spokane, one that is within walking distance to the hospital.

Following her surgery and our return home, we will be "Staycationing" at our home here in the Tri-Cities for the remainder of the summer while she recuperates.

I'll be posting further events as they occur in Spokane for all you blog readers.
