Sitting in exam room at Dr. Barrington's in Plano. For 2nd opinion & a conversation about hip surgery.
Yesterday - Thursday - was a good day. Thursday AM offered us a $250,000 grant. We got 10? emails from Minnetonka & Pathfinder schools. Felt tremendous relief.
And I'm receiving a UNM Alumni Achievement Awards Faithful giving recognition. Second finalist.
