It's Upon Us

My youngest daughter is going in for surgery tomorrow morning to remove a lesion.  The surgery's been scheduled for a couple of weeks and we've been waiting a bit on pins and needles; thankfully, she had a dance competition this weekend to keep her mind occupied.  Here are some photos, taken by Derek Baron, from her solo.  It's hard to imagine a healthy active thirteen year old could have this going on.  I'd so appreciate it if you could send healing thoughts her way.

UPDATE:

Surgery's successfully over and she came through beautifully.  Hurray! Here she is in the recovery room, with an Ugly Doll given to her by her dance company mates.
