Pink Out

This is Gary.

Wanted to let all you know that on Wednesday a lot of our family and friends are going to wear pink. We would love to have everyone take part even if you have to swallow your "tough guy pride". It's kind of a fun way to remember Chandy and It'll be a good reminder to us all to "weary" the Lord with our prayers on the day she undergoes her surgery.

As you can imagine she's getting nervous as the day gets closer. She's such a trooper.

Special thanks to Rob and Jen for taking us to dinner tonight. The whole situation was wearing on Chandy as she read one of her books trying to prepare herself for the ordeal ahead. She can only take some of that information in small doses because it can be overwhelming. The dinner was a nice relief from her worries. It's always nice to talk to close friends who can help you put things into perspective and remind you that though the entire struggle seems too great to overcome we can and should only worry about the single step ahead of us and then we'll worry about the next step once this one has been handled.

We should have the exact info on what time Chandy will have her surgery sometime tomorrow afternoon and I'll post it. Barring any complications, Chandy is only expected to spend one night in the hospital. Not sure if she'll feel up to seeing visitors while there but you are always welcome to call me on my cell to find out.

Thanks again for everything...really, thanks! You've all been amazing.
