Surgery date: May 24th, but on the list to be moved up if the opportunity arises.
Pre-op: Likely the Monday before.
Samwise: Will go to Maine and stay with "Gimpy" for 8 weeks. (Gimpy being the name we gave my Dad- and by "we", I refer to my then 2 year old nephew who couldn't say Grampy. The funny part about it was "Grampy" was limping around due to a bone spur. So "Gimpy" really was Gimpy. The name stuck. Now we still laugh when we call dad "Gimpy", but Connor, being pretty self conscious that everyone laughs at him when he calls Dad "Gimpy" has now decided to call "Gimpy" by a new moniker:
"I'm going to My Mom's Dad's house."
That's right. My nephew calls his grandfather "My Mom's Dad". It's funnier when he tries to call Gimpy over. "Hey My Mom's Dad? Can I have some juice?")
Huzzah, on all counts.
