Jinni is back home completely intact except for the cancer. Good riddance.
She is sitting at the kitchen table eating a good ol' greasy Biscuitville breakfast. Her left wing is a bit sore, but other than that - so far - none the worse for wear.
I was wrong about the final pathology report on the tumors - they won't be available until Wednesday. But the preliminary report is encouraging.
It will be a movie-laden weekend for her as I make some attempts to knock out a long list of honey-do's in advance of the May 7th party for 150 or so of our closest friends.
