During a sleepless night before open heart surgery last January 20, Kim was understandably agitated. Here she was, a seemingly healthy 70-year-old, about to have her chest opened to extricate from her left atrium a tennis-ball-size tumor that had been secretly growing for at least ten years. There was a 99% chance of her surviving the procedure, but uncertain months of recovery stretched ahead.
What a wonderful love filled post. I'm so happy everything went well for Kim and you. BTW I don't keep Tylenol or like pain relievers in the house either. But there are times I wished I did. Take care of each other. We have a long way to go before our work is done on this planet and it's humans. You and Kim just keep doing what you are meant to do. You do it well.
Before I could comment, I had to listen to Theresa singing "The Rain is Over and Gone" with Wes here at sunset--feeling teary a bit after reading of your tears and feeling swept up in the concert and Kim's soprano --what a triumph. Thank you for taking us right there into the concert hall...
Wow! Amazing - what a connection between the music and Kim’s surgery. And, the fact she was able to sing with the group a month later. Yes, music, and good words heals. So much love. - Shirley
Beautiful! And hallelujah! Kim looks great!

I'm so glad that it all happened and went so well. Please let Kim know we're grateful on her behalf!
