Good Friday????

Ok lets try this again.Just lost the whole thing. so here we go again
Last night Wendy was having lots of pain in her left hip and knee. The right one is her bad one or it has been up to now. They have told her that she will have to have it operated on soon. I think that she has been favoring the right one and is now putting to much pressure on the left one. Any way yesterday we went for a walk with Mandy and Josiah at Henderson park and maybe it was just too much for her. Last night she didn't sleep at all because of the pain.This morning at 9 am we went to the Lethbridge hospital. They finally took her in at 10:30 and took x rays of both the knee and the hip. They found that she has arthritis in the knee and is causing all the pain that goes from her hip to just below the knee and the fact that she is favoring the other hip doesn't really help either. They gave her a prescription and that seems to help a lot. So about 2:30 we got home and had some lunch. Wendy doesn't complain much so when she says I think we should go to the hospital I know she is really hurting bad.
Well we are trying to keep her off the legs for the moment, not sure how long that will last. ha ha.
Mandy has been down since Sunday and Jorge came down on Thursday evening. They are planning on going home on Sunday after church.
It was a beautiful day here today and after we came home from the hospital we had lunch out in the back and enjoyed the sunshine.
Please pray for Kristy and Bob as they were not able to get all the visa for the students so the Mexico trip is on hold. I believe that Kristy has blogged about it so if you go to her blog that will explain it all there.
Please pray for Wendy that the pain will go away and she will fell better. With Wendy and her both hips giving her trouble and me with my heart we are not a very healthy family at the moment. I am sure that God has it all in control and will show us what will happen next.Please Pray for my daughter Jeanne in New York as she has been ill and is running back and forth to the doctors and there it is very expensive. As most of you know Tanya and Tom are expecting and Tanya hasn't been feel so great so please pray for them also. Well I guess that will keep you busy praying for our family for a while. Sorry about that but we know that pray works and we thank you for that. Have a great day and God Bless you all.
Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers, Floyd, and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God. The trick is remembering it enough to be encouraged when you're in the thick of it. Have a good Easter anyway. Trust Wendy will soon feel better.

Thanks for posting this, honey, as I didn't want to... I know it will all work out as God is truly in control and using this for His purpose!

Thank the Lord for our kids and family who have been so supportive and faithful...

P.S. To whoever wants to know - we were blessed and encouraged to find out that the other hip is fine - it was just muscle strain from favoring the bad one!
