The Rav felt that this week's procedure went easier than the previous one. He is feeling up beat but continues to ask for your tefillos (Shlomo Leyb ben Miriam)for refuah shlayma. He would feel even more confident if the report from the doctors had arrived b4 Shabbos, as anticipated. B"H, it will arrive early this week and G-D willing, will be good news. At this time it is felt that listeners should be reminded that all shiurim that are in parts need you to download all parts to get the complete shiur. There seems to be some confusion since we have seen downloads of only Part 1 in many cases. Therefore the reason to title "First Half" "Second Half" or "Thirds" if the Rav speaks more than 160 minutes.
