No More Lines

Hello everyone,
The last of the lines where removed today. Diane is know transitioning into the next phase of recovery. Her plumbing is working, but they need to adjust in how they function as the result of surgery. The nurses are fine tuning the type and dose of oral pain medication. They need to find the right one to relieve the pain and have the least amount of side affects. When Dr. Sussman talked with us today he was thinking about releasing her from the hospital on Monday. We would stay at the Hope Lodge Monday night and see the Dr. at his office on Tuesday. If the staples are ready to be removed he would do so at that time. Depending on how Diane feels we may stay another night at the Hope Lodge or return home Tuesday. We are going to take it one step at a time and not worry about any time table. What ever is best for Diane, that is what we will do! We miss our family, friends, and worshipping God at New Faith Chapel. If we all pay attention to the details we will see how God is not only working in our circumstances, but the circumstances you all face in your lives as well. It is hard to see God at work while we are in the middle of our circumstances, but we need to trust that he is, and know that others see God working.

Good night
