HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

For those of you who asked for more photos of Noa, the Halloween Parade in our building offered the perfect photo op (I know it doesn't look like much, that's just because we're bringing up the rear at this point).

Noa loved wearing her skunk costume and all the excitement around the parade - she really got that it was a special event, and she's kind of a party-girl. She did a lot of walking - which was really an enormous effort for her. We were so proud of her! She even got a bag of candy! She shook it once, decided it was a broken toy and threw it away.

With all the craziness around getting ready for the big trip to Duke, it was a terrific, fun break for all of us - a big thanks to Melissa who was a huge part of the Halloween fun, and she took these great photos!

We leave for Duke on Sunday afternoon - and yes, we'll be trying to get to the airport in the midst of the NY Marathon!

We meet with the staff at Duke on Monday morning for a bit. The procedure itself is scheduled for 11:00am Tuesday morning and should take about 2 hours. If all goes well we'll be back in NYC by Wednesday afternoon!

We are tremendously grateful for all the prayers, good vibes, the salt over the shoulders, the white healing light, etc... Your good wishes mean so much to us.
We thank you thank you thank you, and Noa sends big bubbly belly laugh your way!
