T - 2 (Tuesday)

Today is packing for the trip to the apartment in NYC and stay at the hospital -- one of the toughest parts of this whole thing -- I never know what to pack.

It was pouring so hard that it reminded me of being in the Philippines during a monsoon in 1972.

Kate called early this morning and asked if we wanted to go to mass. So, Barbara and I and Kate and Fran went to 9:00am mass at St Martin of Toures in Bethpage. After mass the priest annointed Kate and I.

We then went to BestBuy to get a router so that we could both be on the internet at the same time. The one that I had brought finally died -- it was pretty old and needed to be updated anyway. We also went to Target and got some last minute stuff and some food.

My friend Sr. Rosie wrote a comment about constantly checking your identity at every step along the way in the hospital. This always makes me think of going for a colonoscopy and being asked for a photo ID. My first thought was about people paying someone to take their SATs, but a colonoscopy ??

The weather showed some signs of brightening up in the afternoon, but has turned dark again. We would love to be able to go out and walk.
