Being the procrastinator that he is (and that I am, too), it should come as no surprise that my dad ended up in the hospital Thursday. He had a blockage in his colon - the result of which had him not eating for at least a week.
So when my mom and Bridget finally dragged him off to the doctor, it wasn't long before he was checked into the hospital. Thursday night was a rush of tests and a surgical procedure that temporarily got things going. But more surgery lies ahead - and it will be at least Monday before dad gets out of the hospital.
The power of prayer is amazing - and if you didn't realize that, this is a perfect example. What could have been a very grave situation has turned out to be not as bad as we once thought. Thank you to everyone for your prayers and thoughts. It also meant the world to my dad to hear from the girls and Danielle. Your voices brought a wide grin to his face when he relayed the story of speaking with you by phone. Thank you.
