That doesn't sound entirely promising, but I hope all goes well, timewise as well as medically of course!

This is exciting! Such an interesting project! I hope you will be able to attend - which means I also hope Tabitha will be relatively all right.
If all is well, I hope you will share your experiences with us...

Hoping for the best on all fronts! Wondering whether I have time to reread Allan's war novel en route to give me more material.
