I will have at least 10 days notice as I must come of some medication beforehand and switch to another. @Darlene - We might rope in Magpie to do the choreography... he knows about dancing, you know! ;) @Baino - I agree. @Magpie - I love “No Triumph, No Tragedy” with Peter White (who himself is blind since birth)

Now, Grannymar, we have to start thinking about our hippy dance group after your surgery. Will we do a ballet number, jazz dance, swing, or tap? We can do it if we work hard. BIkehikebabe, weigh in here. This inspiring couple show that anything is possible if you want it bad enough.

I'm glad you told us to wait until after seeing the video to read the story. Heartwarming indeed. And you're right about posting so you can always find it. That's what I like to do on my blog, too. How much notice will you get before your surgery?
