We're Here!

We are at City of Hope, Bridget's surgeon and the rest of the medical team are fantastic! The grounds are beautiful with the San Gabriel Mountains in the background and seemingly every type of tree, shrub and plant flowering in the springtime air filling it with fragrance! Bridget is now in surgery...we are humbly confident and feel God's grace surrounding us constantly. Thank you for the prayers and please keep them going! Will update as soon as I can. Tom

Heading to California







Hi this is Tom writing. We set up a blog to try to keep people informed (Thanks Ryan!).
The pictures are from our blissful family vacation to Florida this past week. That's Bridget receiving a boat bumper that reads "Happy Birthday Bridget" from one the dolphins at Discovery Cove...she was very surprised and overwhelmed with joy at the experience.
We're off to California on Sunday, April 12th. Check out Bridget's surgeon: http://www.cityofhope.org/directory/people/badie-behnam/Pages/default.aspx

Monday is full of all day appointments for preop workups, meeting with specialists, learning about the clinical trial:

As well as new MRI's, CAT scans in preparation for the surgery.
Bridget should be in surgery first thing in the morning on Tuesday.
Thank you and keep up the prayers, they are working!
Tom & Bridget.
