We're heading back to Baltimore sooner than expected. Rich is supposed to have his staples out two weeks from surgery versus two weeks from discharge so that's tomorrow. It also so happens we can get an update on the plan from Hanna and Hausner while we're there so that's nice. Poor Rich was just getting used to being home and we have to go back. But I promised him that all we're going to do is remove staples and talk. No one is going to start the next phase of anything until he's feeling better from Phase One.

We're planning on just day tripping it, but are packing clean undies just in case. I know he will be anxious to get back home.

This trip is hard on him since he's still adjusting but I think good will come of it to merit not putting it off another week.
