Tim is getting a bit stronger every day. His appetite is still not very good but at least the nausea is a bit better. Tim's surgery on his arm is scheduled for 12:30 pm tomorrow. It is scheduled for about 3 hours. He will not be allowed anything to eat or drink after midnight. To be honest, we are both a little distracted and nervous. It will be another bigger surgery. Please pray that there will be minimal blood lose. That God will protect all the nerves that run down the arm and go into the hand. There is always a risk of nerve damage when the doing the arm roding. We have been doing devotions up here and the one thing that has come up the last couple of days is that we do not need to try and "hang on" to God. That would imply using our strength. Rather, we need to hide in the shadow of His wings, seek the protection of His tower, rest in the grip of His hand. Yeah God because we have spent all our own strength a long time ago :) !!
