Update on Brother

You may have read the post about my brother being injured in Iraq. That was bad news. The good news are below.

The surgery on Franco's foot went well. His cousin Johanna (Nena's daughter) was able be with him for about 4 hours on Monday and she was there when they tested his foot and he was able to wiggle his toes.
Franco should be in arriving in Washington DC on Friday, it is unclear right now whether he will stay there for a few days or connect immediately with another flight and proceed to San Diego.

This bit of good news takes a little worry off my head as it seems like he's going to be OK soon. We'll be getting to spend time with him for Thanksgiving, and hopefully he won't be doing anymore tours of duty.
