I wanted to get that straight before calling you. It looks like we would= need to have some support starting November 12th daily for at least 5 days= . The necessary times needed I am unclear at this point. I'm thinking poss= ibly from 9am to 1pm daily at a minimum. She typically likes to go out afte= rnoons. Can we speak live at some point to work out details?
