Greetings from Texas! It was 91 degrees and sunny here today in San Antonio. We arrived safely and today has been a good day. We celebrated Mother's Day yesterday and had a nice breakfast this morning at home, before leaving for the airport. Our flight was fine and everything went as planned. We have this fun cherry red rental car and actually got to pick it out at the Alamo rental place. We brought our Garmin this time and that has been great for directions. Got lots of comments on our fun "crutch covers," as we walked through the airport.
We went to a marvelous Texas BBQ restaurant tonight called, The County Line .... had awesome BBQ beef brisket, green beans, garlic potatoes and splendid ice tea. I am stuffed and will for sure stay full until surgery tomorrow. Our surgeon recommended the restaurant and it was a great pick! It was very near our hotel and easy to find. We had enough leftovers that we brought a box back to the hotel that mom can use for lunch tomorrow. Our doctor also recommended a Mexican place that we may try when I get out of the hospital (if time permits).
I need to finalize my bag to take to the hospital and we are heading to bed early tonight. I feel like nearly everything I have brought this time is pink in color! I'm opting for an early, early morning shower tomorrow before we head to the hospital about 6:15am.
A small group from my parents' church is coordinating some meals (for when we return) and my mom is thrilled. This is one less thing to worry about or try to coordinate and something that will be a HUGE help. Thanks to the Lifelaunchers small group also for the gift of money, to help with trip expenses. Thank you! Thank you!
Better get organized for tomorrow .... I'm relaxed, peaceful and ready for our big day. Thanks for praying and thinking of us - your support has meant more to us than you'll ever know. I'll have mom update the blog as soon as we know more tomorrow, although it may be evening before we get situated & our thoughts collected.
Looking forward to a closed foot and our final surgery ... pray that Dr. Ingari does his best artery and skin transfer ever.
Much Love,
Jenny
