Our oldest grandson:

My glass of sparkling cider and some hors d'oevres:

Our granddaughter!

The turkey! (Not the guest!)

Our daughter and their new noisy dachshund

Me and Ben clowning!

Me with Ben being himself!

The three kids and the guest!

Here's a few photos from our belated Thanksgiving dinner!
We visited our daughter, her husband, their three kids and a guest!

My results from the Pulmonary Function Tests are in! They are normal and OK to proceed with surgery.
So I'm a mix of emotions today.
Of course, this result was the most acceptable to me.
And I'm scared too.
Both tests had their difficulties for me. They were hard in places. They truly tested my ability to perform appropriately. I actually didn't think I'd do well enough. So I'm surprised as well as scared.
Next week, I will have a video conference with my surgeon and the details will become clear then.
Thanks to all of you for your support: the stories, the humor, the love . . .
