UT-SW

We've decided to stay close to home and go to UT-SW to start the diagnostic process. So, Steve will wait for a call Monday or Tuesday and we'll head that way. We feel very comfortable with the decision and realize how fortunate Steve is to have two excellent options so quickly in this process.

He's very tired today but overall feeling OK -- spirits lifted by a group of neighboring friends who outlined our house in Christmas lights this morning (and Cooper & Katie's reaction to the lights), a friend who spent a couple of hours with me organizing the kitchen, a visit from his family, a small Christmas party with friends and continued notes and calls of encouragement.
