Surgery

The long awaited surgery finally took place today. Everything went well with only a couple of minor surprises. Surprise #1, Both legs were numbed. Apparently, the anesthesiologist numbed the wrong leg and ended up having to numb both. Surprise #2 was that this was NOT an out-patient surgery. So, it looks like a night in the hospital is in order-and with two numb legs there will be no escaping. Hopefully, he will be released tomorrow.

Our pastor from the church we've been attending out here for the past year came out for the surgery which was very much appreciated. It's awesome knowing that no matter where we are in the world we are not alone. Another amazing event is the fact that my drill which was supposed to take place Thursday through Sunday was shortened to Thursday and Friday at the last minute (no ammo at the rifle range-if you want the story, email me). I would never had made it in time for the surgery if the drill schedule had not changed. God has truly blessed us.





The doc apparently likes the blue soap best. Yummers...
