Today, Fiona's surgery went really well. She is recovering. We have made it through the Post-op recovery time wonderfully. It's the toughest time for Yetta because Fiona is usually angry, frustrated and crazy. Today she just slept through almost all of it.
Grandma Karen is sleeping at the hospital with her tonight so Tom and I can get some much needed rest. Grandmas are the best.
We were able to encourage our post-op nurse today. She claims to be a believer and was wanting good materials to encourage her in her walk. Pray for Cherry that we will have further ministry in her life. She shared with us her burdens for patients and how she prays and fasts for them. We gave her a copy of a small booklet by JC Ryle called Sickness which has been very encouraging to us. We also gave her a copy of the Two Ways to Live track to help her in her witness to patients. She told how she shared with a patient and kept up with him after his Cancer treatments and how he later became a believer and was baptized. To God be the glory!
We are also sharing our room with another family. Please pray for many opportunities to share the gospel with them and to encourage them as their 2 month old baby is in the hospital!
Thank you for your prayers!

So glad to hear it went well! Our little bout with ear tubes showed us what post-surgery kids are like and I feel for you!!!! Sorry it had to be done, but hoping it will bring sweet Fiona (and you guys)some relief. God bless her! By the way, where can I get that JC Ryle booklet? :)
