Thoughts for my friends

Updated around noon with information from Judy's sister: Judy is out of surgery and it went extremely well. Although pathology reports are needed to confirm the results, they look very good indeed. Wonderful, wonderful news!!!

Send Judy your love and prayers, because today's surgery day. You've got blogland in your corner, Judy, and we're all pulling for a successful surgery, a quick recovery, and 100% total healing.

A link to the video of Julia's memorial service at Koroot in Seoul can be found here and here. It is a lovely tribute, and oh it made me cry, particularly the photos of Julia with Yael Naim singing in the background.
