I can only say thanks, over and over again, to those of you who prayed for me this week. My hip replacement was Monday morning at 7:30, and I came ‘home’ yesterday (to my parents house in WV). One time in the hospital, I remember wondering why I seemed to be doing so much better than others. Some suggested my age, but I remembered your prayers. Most of the time I am amazed at how little pain I’m actually having, but then there are those other times…

But that’s only about the last week, and it’s time to move on; Bob is back in Ohio working on our house. He hopes to have the carpet laid sometime within the next few weeks so he can bring\u00a0me home. Since my therapy consists of an exercise routine I do on my own, I can do it anywhere.\u00a0<\/font><\/p>\n

It’s really been a very busy summer with meetings continuing up through the evening before my surgery, combined with the work on our house, going to our church missions conference, and attending to the needs of our elderly parents. Our schedule will pick up again at the end of\u00a0September with meetings in Michigan. My goal is to be ready to go to these meetings with Bob.

Thanks again for your prayers. We have really felt your love this week.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
