didn't see that one coming...

tuesday afternoon - my honey Brian was
at the doctor for stomach pain

dinner time - sitting with Brian as they conduct
various tests including a CT scan at the hospital

10pm my honey is having emergency surgery
to remove his appendix

we are home & so grateful to God for many things...
Brian's appendix had not burst although
it was full of infection

our children were well taken care of by my sister

my brother & his wife sat with me during the surgery

our incredible pastor, one of the awesome elders,
and our amazing children's minister & dear friend
spent time visiting and praying
with me during the surgery


so this will be a very low key father's day weekend

the patient has some lovely pain medicine
and is resting today
he'll be chomping at the bit to get back to work,
but, alas, the surgeon said at least a seven day break
for someone who is a "doer", this will be tough
(yikes)
i'm thinking i will be
nurse/prison warden for the next week!

"He who dwells in the
shelter of the Most High,
will abide in the shadow
of the Almighty...
under His wings
you will find refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield."
Psalm 91:1,4
