A Friend Is Having Morning Surgery

I got a call earlier. A friend is having an outpatient surgery tomorrow. And needs a driver. Of course I volunteered to drive her. She has to arrive at 5:am. So it will be a very early day. But I do not mind helping when I can. She is a great friend. Photo is mine. The card was received by a sweet friend for many years now. The roses were picked from Dustin's garden this past summer.

Thank you, I know how precious friends are and never mind helping. I know how it feels not to have anyone to call. Hoping for a nap tomorrow evening.

@CarolDM That is terrible! I wonder if they gave her too much anesthetic!

@kobesbuddy They gave the right dosage she just had a reaction to it. Her first time to ever have anesthesia.

It’s a neighborly thing you’re doing for your friend. Better get to bed early tonight.
