The 3 Legged Man

Jim home from the hospital

 DUCT TAPE!

You never know what a day holds.  A volleyball game was the catalyst for change.  Just a turn-for the worse-and Jim blew his achilles tendon.  Amazingly he drove 8 hours the next day and met with an orthopedic surgeon who verified it.  Thursday, May 3 Jim had surgery to repair/reconstruct the severed tendon.  Anyone who knows Jim is aware he’s unusual, but this guy comes with extra body parts-a tendon-as a matter of fact, which the surgeon used to wrap around the repair.  Pray for Jim to know what his limits are, and for me to have wisdom as to when to assist or duct tape him down. 

Please pray:

Pray for opportunites to witness to our Dr. and his staff, and for Jim and I to grow in being conformed to the image of His son through this time.

Pray for the healing/rehabilitation-it could easily be 6 months.

Whiskers and Eleanor spent surgery day with us 

Good friends helping out.
