 > Hi All again,

 > As of today after Don had a blood test yesterday and a PET scan today of 2
 > hours (with results back not yet), we heard from McCaffery's office today
 > that his surgery of a perodidectomy is scheduled for Dec. 13 as Don being
 > his 1st patient that day with check-in at 6:30 AM and the 3 hour surgery to
 > start at 7:30 AM at SB Cottage Hospital Outpatient. We are scheduled to go
 > for a pre-op review of the procedure in his office on 12/8 for 30-45 min. at
 > 3:30 PM. Because Don is over 50 years old, he also has to have a pre-op
 > clearance from his Internist and Cardiologist with an EKG, so we are waiting
 > to hear from them for those appointments.

 > On top of all of that, I got a call from the Honda dealer in Goleta recently
 > that they received a bunch of new 2023 HR-V cars that they thought would be
 > a better fit for me. Those HR-V's are less expensive, smaller, less high
 > tech, and most important the hoods don't slope down instead of straight
 > across so with the HR-V one can see where the front end ends in the front
 > and both sides presumably ending my problem of occasionally bumping into
 > cement barriers in front of me that I can't see such as in some parking
 > garages, etc. After one test drive I think it was yesterday or the day
 > before, they, after negotiating with them re: the price, the trade-in price
 > for my CR-V, and the monthly finance payment very persuasively had me fill
 > out some of the paperwork yesterday and the rest late this afternoon despite
 > my repeatedly saying I didn't want to make this decision so quickly with all
 > that I'm going through with Don's situation. However, thus, I now own the
 > 2023 HR-V car that is now sitting in my carport and hope that I will like it
 > better than the CR-V once in the next few days I learn more about how to
 > drive it.

 > That was definitely too much to handle in one day.
