Pray for Dismissal

Well say prayers that we will be dismissed tomorrow....maybe MCM can climb Harney Peak and send up an Ogalala Sioux prayer and I think all the other prayers you've said have worked in the past so if you will all pray again....and we can get out of here. It's been fun...but as far as I'm concerned it is time to leave.

We will be at UNMC from approximately 7:00 - 1:00 on Monday and they will give us the word then. I think the main deal will be Dan's creatnine level which has been perfect for the last couple of days (1.0) so we have reason to be hopeful, but as Dan said we won't be surprised if they ask us to stick around for more tests.

Speaking of prayers...Rich and Annette sent us a prayer blanket from Faith United Methodist Church. It is a very thoughtful gift and we've already put it to use.

Dan has spent most of his "time off" sleeping. We go in for blood tests early in the morning (7:00am) and then come back to the apartment. He's had trouble with nausea and cramps, but the incision site is getting better and leaking less. Sara watched her sister Rachel play in a volleyball tournament on Saturday and saw her parents and aunt. Sandy and Sara went to Lauritzen Gardens and St. Cecilia's Cathedral on Sunday. Sadie has gone for a few walks and had a hysterical fit when a squirrel showed up on our balcony.

Dave's law firm won their big lawsuit...they represented Black and Decker and sued Bosh Industries for patent infringement. Dave caught Bosh's expert witness lying... a key to the verdict. Jim's been busy with surgeries and was on trauma call this week-end. Chris took his Economics students on a tour of the Buckle warehouse and attended Chris Watts' aunt's funeral on Saturday. Chris has also had people take pity on him since Sara is gone and they've been inviting him over for meals or bringing food to him.

We are getting ready to juggle our TV watching....it's the new shows versus the Bronco game. I think Dan is missing his Tivo.

Well as Sharon said....you will hear us yell from Omaha whichever way the dismissal verdict comes out. We will also let you know via the blog.

We are delighted things are going so well. We will continue to keep you in our prayers: dismissal , yes, but a great long-yerm outcome above all would be the greatest gift of both the Lord and the medical profession.
