Recent posts have started with a commercial reference. This one is different. I don't know why this Three Stooges skit entered my mind. I really don't. I searched for a video clip, and I found similar ones from Abbott and Costello, and I Love Lucy. They all have basically the same story, and I'm not sure what it really has to do with our latest situation, but I will do my best to make the connection for you.
We did get news this week about Donor #2. His doctor finally sent the proper paperwork to the Mayo Clinic. They sent out the orders for blood tests, and he had those done. He studied more than I did and aced the blood tests. The donor coordinator from Phoenix called and set up his week of testing at the Mayo Clinic. He will be traveling out the week of June 5. There are several tests, examinations, and meetings that will be involved. If all goes well, we will know if he can be a donor on June 15. If he is still willing to go through with all of this, the surgery might be scheduled for late June. We would like to get the surgery done as soon as possible to Missy will be able to return to teaching in the fall.
Have you seen the connection yet? Nope, me either. We are taking this process step by step and inch by inch. Some steps are smaller than others. This latest news is a larger step, and we hope it leads to the final steps. Yes, it's a bit of a stretch for a connection, but it's the best I could come up with. No, we're not planning on punching anybody out any time soon.
Please pray that all goes well with the travel and testing. We will keep you updated as best we can. Oh, I thought of this song, too, when thinking of a step by step process. This analogy is better than the others.
