Signs and Sea Turtles

We are here in WPB and just gettingn closer to the surgery date!  

We were at dr. Paleys office all morning/hospital for preop yesterday.  It went well.  Dr paley looked at her MRI again and apparently can now do a modified version of the superhip procedure that is more similar to superhip 1 than superhip 2.  That means less difficult.  He has a way, based on how her hip is formed, to join the femoral head and the cartilage that is present and insert BMR to harden it.  Estimate is now 5-8 hours surgery.

I feel like we are getting signs that we are being taken care of and guided.

Yesterday out of the blue Sadie said to me and Nana: I love you with God.  (We have never said that exact phrase to her)

On our way to the condo from the airport, we saw fireworks from the freeway.  On a Saturday night at 9:30pm, November 1.  I asked our driver if that was normal and he said he had no idea why there were fireworks, and it looked like it was coming from exactly where we were going!  We never did figure out where and why, but when we walked into the condo for the first time, (as if we had any doubt), there was a tablecloth on the table with fireworks on it!

The PA we met with at Paleys office was from Bangor, Maine, and that's the area my Grandma was born and raised.

We just went to the Loggerhead sea turtle exhibit.  They rescue sea turtles and nurse them back to health, then release them back to the ocean.  We even saw a turtle getting surgery at the hospital there!!!  It was a tranquil and relaxing time.  We even found a cold pressed juice bar on the way and all drank delicious juice on the way there!

I let Sadie wear whatever she wanted and she chose Cinderella, also with her hair up.

Just trying to focus on positivity, strength and prayers.
