Tuesday night the lightening spread for at least 120 degrees around the horizon. Whole hands with extended fingers of lightening extending from the sky. I sat out in the back until I caught myself falling asleep in a chair so I missed what rain came later. The intermittant sprinkles that had fallen dried up within a minute of hitting. Temperatures have been between 100 and 115 degrees F.
Brother Jay had surgery yesterday evening: a lumbar-peritoneal drain was inserted to deal with spinal fluid collecting at the base of hie head.
There are no more surgical options remaining for him. It was a long, long day at hospital. He was chipper and very cold when he came back to the room.
Thanks for the update. How is everyone else holding up?
