Terry, that is the best news! The trucks matter but nothing is more important than family.

Yes indeed, the Dr should admit where and give Thanks to where his skill came from, but GOD is good and takes care of us all. Thanks so much for all the prayers and warm thoughts. We were hoping he'd be home for their anniversary (19 th of Dec) but they say Sunday. He'll definately be home for CHRISTmas and we'll have a good time. My little bro and his wife are expecting a baby boy in Feb, so dad said he definately wanted to stick around and see him. Hopefully he'll be around for another 20 or so years at least We work togheter everyday and he's my best friend too!!

Thanks again guys and gals

You know...I had a doctor come into my room the night before surgery somewhere around 2000. He asked my family and myself if he could say a prayer over me and ask for God to guide the surgeons hands in the surgery room (my doctor was not the surgeon).

At first...that really scared me.

I was thinking just how bad is this surgery and how bad of shape am I really in? What are they not telling me!?

However, after thinking about it for a few seconds...I was very thanful for the way he feels about it all. He truly knew who takes care of us all.

That is awesome news Terry!!!

Glad he is home now.

I know it takes time to completely recover after a major surgery. Just be patient. He will be back to his old self shortly.
