I thought she mentioned somewhere that she was going to be staying in for 5 days.  Her surgery was Thursday so she may not be back home just yet.

I sent her a pm and never heard back.  I am in Houston and could check on her but do not know how to reach her.  If anyone does and wants to help, let me know.
