hip surgery

They just took Sam to surgery.  For those of you who don't know,  the purpose of this surgery is to improve mobility in Sam's hips.    Sam was a trooper- no tears, cracking the staff up.   He took his little stuffed dog, Lilly with him, because he didn't "want HER to be afraid".

Recently we were talking about fear.  I asked him if he had ever prayed to God when he was afraid in Lithuania.  He replied, "OH NO (with Sam it is never just yes or just no) ..OH NO, mama, I did not know God back then!"  

We have our computer , so we will update this blog through out the day.  They expect the surgery to last three to five hours.  Recovery will be 3-7 days in the hospital.  He may or may not have hip spika casts....

Please pray---K
