Short update this week: TheWife ended up staying out in NY all week, helping Mx19 navigate follow-up appointments and working with the lawyer to move things forward. Mx19’s dorm bed is lifted, so it’s not exactly comfortable for somebody with a broken hip to be climbing in and out of — so being able to crash at the hotel with TheWife was clutch.
