240221 the waiting is over. the waiting begins.
Feb 21, 2024
We have been waiting eleven days for today. K has gone into surgery. Now I am waiting for the operation to be over. Then, we can begin the long journey to recovery. I am picturing K and I sitting on the vineyard porch in the early morning, coffee in hand, while Rocky investigates the latest messages under the witches. We plan to make it to the Estrie for the 8th of April to watch the solar eclipse.
Sunrise, April 8, 2021.After spending so many weeks in suspended animation, (as my dear friend, GM, put it!), I experienced a rush of emotion as they took K to the OR. The surgical assistant said the procedure would take about two hours. They are planning to take only some of the hardware out of K's leg and replacing the prosthetic hip joint with a longer one that will extend all the way down the femur. I am electrified with the suspense, having, it seems, only switched one "other universe" space for a different one. When will I find myself back on earth?
