Hospital Round 2
Well, we had the privilege of returning to the hospital a few months before we planned. Again, the nursing staff has been attentive and taken good care of us. Ray is up and about and feeling much better. So, I hope that we will be home by tomorrow. Thanks to all of the rest of you for your love and support!

Update
Thanks to your wonderful support and prayers and our surgeon's talent surgery went very well.
I spent the day waiting with my wonderful family members. Thank you, Katie, Megan, Shari, Ambrose, Jennifer and Zamari!
Ray is up and walking a few times a day and is doing as well as can be expected, in fact, better than the doctor thought.
I am very thankful for the tender mercies our Father in Heaven has blessed us with.

Thank you
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers. Many of you have asked what you could do to help us. The greatest help we get is that of your prayers. we know there are many people that need your help and prayers, so we am humbled by your love and concern.
We are doing well. Katie hung out with me Saturday afternoon and then Megan rode the bus home Saturday night so both of our children on this side of the continent were here! They are a lot of fun and I am grateful for them. This afternoon we ran an errand and I locked my keys in the car. After calling Katie to come to my rescue which she readily agreed to, Megan came out of the store and opened my car door with her key. Sometimes I wonder what I would do with out my girls. I think back to the days they were little and needed all of my attention and now I need theirs! Thank you, girls!
