Surgery Scheduled for tomorrow!

I just got off the phone with Blodgett Hospital and have now found out that my surgery will be at 7:30 AM tomorrow morning - Thursday, March 5. I am asking for your prayers for me and also for my family as we go through this together.



For those of you who might not know yet, I will be having a total hip replacement surgery on my left hip. I have been diagnosed with hip displaysia and have had progressive arthritis for over a decade. The pain has been increasingly worse over the years and especially over the last 6-9 months. I've been walking with a cane for the last few months which has helped somewhat but I'm really looking forward to the time when I won't need any help with my walking and ESPECIALLY when I won't have the pain anymore!!!



God will watch over me and take care of me so I'm not afraid of the surgery. I am not looking forward to the recovery time since I don't have a lot of patience and this will require a LOT OF PATIENCE!!



Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers offered up for me! I love you all! I will try to put an update on here when I'm feeling up to it again but Mike will be putting updates on his facebook too.



May you be as blessed as much as you are a blessing to others!

My prayers are with you too! I learned a long time ago that when we don't pray about things, even little things can go wrong.
