Update (3/2/09 - 12:10am)

Praise the Lord!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just spoke with the surgeons. They are finished! Much sooner than planned, because it went much better than expected. They did not have to sever the femoral nerve root! They did not have to remove the kidney! They did not have to take any colon!
The vertebrae was beautifully reconstructed.
All our prayers were answered!!
Please continue to pray for Cindy's recovery. The surgeons won't know for sure if there has been any collateral nerve damage for a while.
Thank you everyone for your faithful and effective prayers!!
-Rick

"Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth. Serve the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful singing. Know that the Lord himself is God; it is he that has made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise. Give thanks to him, bless his name. For the Lord is good; his lovingkindness is everlasting and his faithfulness to all generations." Ps. 100
