THURSDAY  8:30 AM
I'm sitting next to Colleen who's just fallen asleep in her hospital bed, Room 919, 9th Floor, Meyer Building. The procedure has been postponed; we don't know whether the postponement is until the afternoon,  tomorrow, or even later. I don't think the doctors know either. They're consulting as I type. I promise to keep you posted.

9:00 AM
Definite postponement for today. The doctors want her blood oxygen levels higher than they are. She's wearing an oxygen mask to assist in that. She seems quite sanguine about the delay. Just breathing in and out. As best she can.

10:15 AM
Errata:  Colleen is not sanguine. A few minutes ago she said to me, "This is a disappointment; to put it mildly." She's just fallen asleep again.
