Quick Details

 

We have arrived in New York and are settled in our little place for this first week. We will be staying at The Helmsley Medical Tower this first week while Henley is in the ICU. This location is literally across the street from the Specialty Surgery building and so it will make it very easy to take turns getting showers and naps etc since there is little of that happening in the ICU. After Henley gets out of the ICU (approx 5 days), we will move to a cheaper hotel down the road a bit to save money and to be with those in our family who are traveling up here to be with us. If you have anything you would like to send to us over the next couple weeks, please send it to the hotel. Address is: Leslie Thomas C/O The Helmsley Medical Tower 1320 York Ave # L, New York, NY 10021 We will be in this location until Sunday March 12th. Then we will move to The Bentley Hotel 500 E 62nd St, New York, NY 10065 for the next week. Food is VERY expensive here and we are using our Amazon Prime to get some groceries and things we need delivered to our hotel (food, bottled waters and several other items we didn't even know we needed until arriving) There is also an app people use here called Seamless where you can order meals from local restaurants and they deliver directly to the lobby of the hospital or hotel. We are hoping to utilize that a bunch too. 

We have Henley's Pre-Op appointment tomorrow at 1:00pm and will have a lot more details after that appointment and I plan to write a post tomorrow explaining more in detail about the surgery itself and specific prayer requests. Surgery is Wednesday morning and since she is the youngest, that means she gets to go first. I will know a "time" tomorrow. Thank you all for praying. We know we are being carried through all of this because the Lord is answering your prayers and giving us exactly what we need in each moment. Thank you.
