All is well!

Kathleen and I just talked with Dr. DelaMelena: surgery is complete, and Iris flew through smoothly. We’ll go meet her in an hour or so, after they’ve eased her back out of anesthesia.
There’s a man sharing the waiting room with us who looks remarkably like Iris’s father, fedora, mustache, and all. A reassuring proxy for Doc Sullivan, keeping a watchful eye on his daughter.

    Dear Iris–I have been following your blog & am so happy to hear the Good News. God Bless you! I worked w/ your sis @ CP Hotel, till I was diagnosed w/ “c” in January. I am right behind you in everything: surgery for me in May. Again, all I can say is ‘Thank you God for taking care of Iris!’ xo–bonnyG in Astoria
