Game On!

Hip Rebuild on Wednesday

We met with the orthopedic surgeon today. He was amazed at how much Trudie has improved from two weeks ago. The infectious disease doctor came by and remarked that they were not sure if she would survive the C.Diff infection. He too was amazed at her recovery.

The orthopedic surgeon rallied the medical resources and they are going to do the pre-op procedure at 8 AM and the surgery tomorrow (Wednesday) at 12:30 PM. He said it would be longer than the normal four hour hip replacement. I anticipate her not coming out until early evening or later.

Please be in prayer on Wednesday for her surgery!

Prayer

We would not have believed that we could be here. The doctors cannot believe we are here. The only explanation could be all of you out there praying for us. It is truly God working through the prayers of His people. A friend today said "Well, I guess all we can do is pray." I told him that that is THE most important thing you can do for us.

We are truly grateful to all of you for your faithfulness. Thank you for your prayers.

Trudie, Patrick, Avery and all:

Please remember that you are not alone in this--I hope knowing that your family and friends are praying for all of you and also giving Thanksgiving to God that Trudie is feeling well enough at this point to go ahead with the hip surgery. I'll check soon!

Love and prayers,

Judie & all the Parkers
