Wednesday Afternoon

It's been extremely hot in Regina all week, around 35C and greatly taxing the a.c. systems. The high humidity also poses added risks for infections. As a result, the hospital has decided to delay all surgeries until the end of the week; as soon as we have a new surgery date we'll let you know. The nurses are still requesting that visits be limited until after surgery.

Your progress so far is amazing but not surprising. You've always had that zest for life that makes others want to live it to the fullest along your side. Everyone is pulling for you and believes in you - keep faith in yourself and remember that others are there to support you.
Take care and see you soon - prayers and best wishes as you continue in this journey.
