For Nancy Birk who will be having surgery this morning on her affected arm and for all the other people around the world enduring the same. Prayers for steadiness of hand of all the surgeons involved as well.

Has anyone heard how Nancy is doing? We'd like an update please.Hope everything went well! LeeAnne

Thanks Francine and LeeAnne for your concern.

I'm doing well, had surgery on Friday. Dr. Nath did a decompression of the ulnar and median nerves and cleaned up some scar tissue at my wrist. It was a fairly simple surgery, well, simpler than the mod quad I had last year certainly! They did it as an outpatient with a local. Can you believe it? But I am having very little pain and enjoying being in Houston where the sun shines. Since it is spring break at Kent State this week, I'm staying here all week, figuring I would recuperate faster in warmer weather than in snow!

Thanks all for your care.
Nancy

Nancy, so glad to hear everything went well.Get some rest before going back to "the grind". LeeAnne

Glad to see you are doing well. Glad that you will have a little vacation in the warm weather... Rest up..
