Don’t know all the details, yet (Kyan’s got a bit of a cold and I had a sore throat overnight, so we slept as much as possible to try to kick it)… Heading over to the hospital in a few and will post the details when I know them.

Liking the idea of being in town @ the hotel to be close but out of the hospital. Good plan. (Of course…!) Hope things went well today.
