Prayers for my wife please - Updated 16 Nov

[Ray S ECenFL]

Yesterday my wife went for walk. She tripped over some yard waste in front of a neighbors house and injured her arm.

I took her to the ER and xrays confirm that her elbow is broken in two places. Surgery is scheduled for later today. She is in a lot of pain and is not a happy camper right now.

The break is so bad a plate will have to be installed to repair the elbow as well as set one of the dislocated bones.

Things will be very hectic for the next few weeks.

Gotta Go.

Update: Tuesday November 4, 2008

Just back from hospital. Surgery went well. Plate installed as well as some other major work to rebuild the ball end of another bone in her elbow. My wife, Patty, is resting and hopfully will be released tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday at the latest.

Sutures to be removed in a few weeks then therapy. Life is never dull, is it?

Thank you all for your prayers and well wishes.

Hi Noodle,

Thanks for the well wishes. I will be taking my wife to the doctor on Friday to have the stitches removed. Will know more then. This has been one rocky road. Being a Dad and a Mom sure give one a good nights sleep.

Ijust stopped in between chores, dishes, laundry, ironing ( I am very domesticted) .

Thank God for family and neighbors who stop in with a meal now and again. Sure helps.

I will post another update when I know more.
