font-family:Arial'>Joanie the Bassets’ Grandpa is having surgery at 7am
on Sunday and needs healing drool. Dad has celulitus (back from last year) and
it’s settled in his knee – they think the plastic piece from his
knee replacement had bacteria on it and this is why the infection is not going
away so they are opening his knee tomorrow to replace the plastic. Dad is in
ICU since Friday night and will stay there for some time after surgery. My mom
is so strong…my brother and family are in <st1:State w:st="on">Michigan</st1:State>
on vacation and I’m in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Phoenix</st1:place></st1:City>
I wish I could be there for them both. Mom said, don’t worry and we’ll
talk on the phone…that’s my mom the strong one! If you’d
like to send a card I know Dad (& Mom) would appreciate it:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
