The Ball Begins Rolling

After a nice weekend with an opportunity to meet with friends, Steve checked into the hospital late Tuesday afternoon to prepare for the surgery Wednesday morning (Hong Kong time). He is in good spirits. Annie, as well as Jim and Winnie, will let us know something as soon as there is something to report. Keep them all in your thoughts and prayers during this critical time.

This is Wednesday evening HK time. Steve went into surgey at 11:00 a.m. and we saw them wheel him by us about 5:30 p.m. so the surgery was not as long as expected. Long enough!

He was responsive - talking - asking questions - said his head hurt a little and was very sleepy. He is in an ICU unit - only family allowed in at this point. There will be radiation and chemo as soon as they determine the exact type of tumor. So we go from here but this was a good day.

Thanks again for all of your prayers and thoughts. They helped more than you will ever know.
