Surgery Postponed

It has been a long slow day of waiting. After waiting half the day, the Doctors postponed surgery. Britt was on a new blood-thinner that requires him to be off of it 2-4 days. So they now plan on doing surgery on Monday. Britten was kind of disappointed but understood why, so we will patiently wait. We hope you never tire of us telling you how appreciative we are for your prayers, concern and support. Our prayers go out to you, as you go through your own personal trials and struggles. We have found that going through this trial, we have become aquainted with God, and we know that He lives. We have learned to trust and rely on him. It is wonderful that we all have a loving Father in Heaven that cares about each of us and our needs. All our love, Steven & Karla

  1. Well, on the positive note, it gives Britten 2 more days to get stronger. Hang in there Brit. The lord's in charge and knows what's best. We love you and continue to pray daily for all of you.
    Keep smiling as we all are.

  4. I'm coming down next week and wondered if there was anything I could bring down to you. I would be happy to even run errands for you down there if you need anything. Comments on my blogs are emailed to me so you can reach me that way by just responding to this comment. As someone above said, it does give him two more days to get stronger and maybe that's what he needs to have to have a successful surgery. I've learned that the Lord's timing may not be my timing but it's always the best timing. His recovery this far is nothing short of miraculous.
