Please Pray for Kevin

Okay, that didn't work quite right....Anyway, Kev has found out that the date for his double knee replacement is July 27. I'm sure you all can understand that he's verrry nervous and apprehensive. The choice of whether to do one at a time or do both at once was his to make. He decided that one anesthesia and one hospital stay was the way he would rather do it. Of course, that means the first couple of weeks are going to be tough. Bob and Mary Ann had volunteered to be the caregivers when he comes home so that I can continue to work, but now I see they're on their way to Minnesota. Guess we should have checked their schedule!!!!
And then when he's all healed and ready to go back to work, he'll be starting a new job. We've been under just a bit of stress the last few weeks as we've pondered these decisions and tried oh-so-hard to leave it in God's hands. It's easy to pray for God's guidance, but hard to let go. At this point, we couldn't be happier with the answers.

Our prayers are with you, and we're working on the new and improved methods of getting Kevin to the top floor of our Gulf Shores condo... ;)
