Just a short note to let you know that Mom came through her surgery today. She went in around 9:00 and was out by about 12:30. We had a call part way through surgery to let us know that she was stable and doing well. Praise the Lord! We were concerned because of her unexplained episode in September. Dr Baker told us that everything went well. No obvious scar tissue or nerve damage that may have been causing the pain. So we continue to pray, now that the expanders are out and the implants are in, that the pain will subside.
It is snowing here in Denver so Dad and Michele headed back to Longmont to beat the rush hour traffic and the weather. I will be spending the night with Mom and she will be released tomorrow.
She is getting excellent care this time around, not as many patients on the floor. They put a pain pump in again and even remembered to turn it on during surgery. (The first question we asked!) Mom is smiling and cheering that the surgery is over.
Thank you for your continued prayers. We treasure each of you!
Blessings to you and your family,
Teresa

So glad the surgery is over. As we drove up to Evergreen in the snow, I was thinking of all of you. We had just driven back from Marshall. We had a wonderful 95th birthday celebration for Mother. How thoughtful of Donna to send a card.
Our love and prayers are with you!!! Ann and Bob Gerteis
Teresa,
Tell your mom that I'll be praying for her rapid recovery and the next time she plays, 'Servants Prayer', that this Servant has her on his heart. God Bless...
