We have a tentative surgery date for the 25th and are praying to get it cancelled. however, we would love to meet up with you time permitting. I would say at clinic time we should be getting out of recovery and hopefully into a room. Are you staying there the day before or anything? While I haven't made the plans we normally stay at the Crowne. Let me know!

Hi, yes we will be at TCH on the 25th. we have an appointment with the doctors ( at 1:30) and then Rivers has surgery on the 26th. Is there a place where parents can meet? I have never been there before so this is all new to me.

Thanks,
Samantha

You will be able to meet the other clinic patients in the waiting room at the clinic. We re scheduled for actual surgery that morning and will be in the waiting room of the West Tower, remind me which floor Fran--3 or 4 I think. If you'd like and are going to be in town the night before we can make arrangements to meet,providing we still have to go. Otherwise, we may be able to arrange a meeting on the floor. Email me at WVOBPIFAMILY@AOL.COM

Forgot--Francine's site gives you enough information that when you step out of the hotel of your choice you feel like you know exactly where you are. It is just a little scary the first time. You'll have plenty of prayers behind you.

we are scheduled for the 25th surgery but have no confirmation from test results that it is a go for sure from the dr(s). We are still holding out hope that she won't need it! If so, we will be at the Crowne on the 24th.
