February 4, 2007

We arrived in Gainesville around 4:30pm today. We found out earlier today that the Ronald McDonald house had room for us, so we chose to stay here instead of the Paramount Hotel that we had stayed in last week. Between it being very inexpesive (they ask for a minimum $10 donation per night), and it being about 1.5 blocks from Shands, we figured it was a good place to be. If you aren't familiar with the Ronald McDonald house, check it out at www.rmhc.com. Also, check out the pictures of the house we are staying at here.

We spoke with the hospital around 7pm, and were told to arrive at 6am tomorrow for the surgery. Presley is the first case, so we expect they will actually begin around 8am. Since the surgery is 4 - 5 hours long, and we have to get up early, we are going to take more time to write about the RMH tomorrow.

In the meantime, you can check out some more pictures of Presley here.

Thoughts and prayers continue to be with all of you at this time! Love the RMH digs! It would appear to have a nice phone in the room ;>)
