Stanford does have a good reputation.
So, good news is snow didn't really stick to the roads today and hopefully there will be none till Wednesday, so it should be fine getting him to the hospital and then I won't go up if the roads are bad on Wed.
oh Kathy, I work with nerds, we can Do weird. LOL but only in a nerdy way. hahaha
You are right, we are all family here.
Vicki, just told hubs about your idea for the BP machine and that you are already using the model so we know it is good one. He thinks it's a good idea to get it and says thank you from both of us.
I'll PM you after this week over and done with and work out the details.
hugs
Sharlene I sent you another link of the same model by a different company that ship to Canada and its cheaper by 30 USD! But I will be happy to ship t to you from the first company if that's what you prefer, its totally up to you
Prayers going up for you BIL!

stopping by to say hello and let you know you and your family are in my thoughts.
Re: Molly, 11 yr, shih tzu - lhasa aspo, cushing diagnosis
Vicki, where did you send the other link at? No see it.
That sounds good if they ship direct to Canada.
Thanks for the well wishes everyone and hubby thanks you all too. He is in the hospital, checked in, first surgery tomorrow morning. He's first batter up. His second surgery will be Friday instead of Thursday, so a day in between. He's booked an hour long massage for both Thursday after dinner and Saturday.
He's already had a visitor from a good friend of ours who lives up there. He was thrilled.
I love facetime as it is good to see him when I talk to him, although it sort of through molly. She hasn't really got the hang of the whole idea of facetime yet. She kept looking towards the door or the dining room trying to find him instead of looking at the screen. It was kind of funny actually and I gave her a treat from him.
I haven't spoken to my sister yet tonight. Time difference and all but I will call her later and get the scoop on what is going on with my brother in law.
My bloody doctor, didn't remember by he had called me to come into the office to see him, and so went through everything he could think of, ordered some tests because it had been awhile (he is very much a preventive medicine doc which I do like) and we got that sorted out, chatted for a bit and off I came home. I'll run up and do my blood tests in the morning before snow comes if possible. hmm, make that a definite I need to get it out of the way, no time otherwise.
So that is it for now. So glad I took a couple days off work this week. It feels more relaxing to not have to think right now.
So far so good.
hugs all

Sharlene--just wanted you to know that I am sending up good vibes to Daniel and your brother-in-law!

Oh thats so cute about Molly and the facetime! Leave it to the furbabies to bring us some smiles in times of great stress.
I'm glad you took some time off of work. You definitely don't need to have that worry right now. Still sending prayers your way!

Adult, Pediatric or Infant mode, with 3 pediatric cuff ( child , infant and neonate cuff)
The one I showed you that ships from Chicago to Canada is same model as mine and comes with Adult, Pediatric or Infant mode, with 3 pediatric cuff ( child , infant and neonate cuff)
so you should be good with it
I use the infant size on Snugs the neonatal is too small for his leg
