For anyone planning January surgeries at TCH

[NancyP]

Just a word of warning that the Superbowl is in Houston this year. We are going to be there the 9th-18th and have already made our reservations. Lisa T said that activities will start up about the time we get there and will last until after the game is over. Hotel rooms will be hard to find.

Also, if it's like when the Republican Convention was in Houston, the hotels won't offer medical discounts during that time.

That is good to know. If some wait any longer they might not find a hotel anywhere. Thanks for letting us know.

Just wanted to bump this up to the top as people are considering their surgery schedules. We have reservations at the Holiday Inn, but Crowne was offering med rate too. We went with Holiday Inn because we will be there so long this time. MUCH CHEAPER:)

Hi Jenny!

Kelsey's scheduled for surgery on the 12th. She will be in PICU for 2 days, then in a regular room. So if all goes well she should be able to have visitors by Wednesday the 14th. We won't get out until sometime during the weekend. We would love to see you guys! Kelsey was asking about Elena just the other day. She is in 1st grade this year and loving it. How is Elena?

We will definately visit on Wednesday. We are looking forward to it!!! See you then!

It's really close to the date Stephanie. Lisa T told me that the festivities will be starting about the time we arrive. The Superbowl is usually the last Sunday in January.
