Great News

Philip is fine, the procedure went well and we are feeling very blessed.

Rick was our nurse today and he was wonderful. He was able to get an IV going on the first attempt, something that doesn’t happen often. He was efficient, knowledgeable, kind and was able to put us both at easy very quickly. Philip was in the operating room  for nearly 3 1/2 hours. About an hour before Philip returned to the room, Rick was kind enough to get me a report that everything was going well.

 The doctor who did the procedure came in and drew us pictures  and explained what he had done. Things had gone as well as he had hoped. We may never see him again, but he will always hold a special place in my heart. He did what needed to be done, what many doctors could not do, what many doctors would not attempt to do. He is a gracious and humble man.

 Special thanks to all who were concerned and praying with us.

    That is wonderful news Randy. We pray Philip will have a speedy recovery from this procedure and proceed on to the next step. We will be thinking of you fondly during Sukkot and praying for Philip’s continued success in treatment. Please send our regards to him.

  4. So not really on the same topic as your post, but I found this today and I just can’t resist sharing. Mrs. Agathe’s dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told him, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll mail you the check. Oh, and by the way…don’t worry about my Doberman. He won’t bother you. But, whatever you do, do NOT under ANY circumstances talk to my parrot!” When the repairman arrived at Mrs. Agathe’s apartment the next day, he discovered the biggest and meanest looking Doberman he had ever seen. But just as she had said, the dog simply laid there on the carpet, watching the repairman go about his business. However, the whole time the parrot drove him nuts with his incessant cursing, yelling and name-calling. Finally the repairman couldn’t contain himself any longer and yelled, “Shut up, you stupid ugly bird!” To which the parrot replied, “Get him, Spike!”
