Surgery in 4 Weeks

I just spoke with dad and they are going ahead with surgery in 4 weeks. He has to gain 5-10 pounds before then. I mean, the doctors can just take some of mine and give it to him. I will gladly make that "sacrifice" for dad.

The doctor was so pleased with how he looks. Dad has also been out walking and has had a couple 1/2 mile walks.

Mom and dad want to thank all those who are helping them with your prayers, help, laughter, support, and everything else you have done. We could not make it without Team "Don't Stop Believing!"

Dad had a lot of wonderful visitors over the weekend with Aunt Hazel, Arlene, the Ekvalls, and the Andersons. Since we are on spring break here this week, the kids and I will be headed down to Maryland tomorrow to visit, run the Piney Orchard Wipeout Cancer 5K, and take mom to the NCAA Tournament to see the Army Women's Basketball team play!

We ask for continued prayers that dad's stomach wound continues to heal and that he gains 5-10 pounds.

Deuteronomy 31:6     Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.
