Never one to miss an opportunity to have an In-N-Out cheeseburger, as soon as the docs gave him the ok to eat whatever he wanted, he asked me to bring him one from his favorite place, plus fries and a chocolate shake. Boy was he grinning when I walked through the door shortly before noon today.
Rob is currently out of bed, disconnected from his monitoring devices and leg pumps (keeps the blood flowing while bedridden), but still with an IV attached, and sitting in a recliner chair reading one of his favorite authors.
No pain meds have been needed for the past 8 hours so he is doing REALLY well, post-op. He is looking forward to being able to come home tomorrow and will see his surgeon on Wednesday of next week, hopefully to have the drains removed from his neck.
We will have a quiet Easter at home, probably watching one of the TV Church programs. My sis and a friend are stopping by in the afternoon to check on his progress.
Once again, we thank each of you from the bottom of our hearts for your faithfulness in standing with us through these many weeks.
May you all be encouraged and your faith strengthened as we celebrate our risen savior Jesus Christ. To God be the glory.
Gratefully His,
Carol and Rob

I just wanted to let you know that I am praying for you both! I'm glad the surgery went well. When an "In-n-Out" fan re-unites with his favorite burger, it's always a beautiful thing! (When a friend of mine was moving back to California, driving in a rental truck with his father-in-law, they pulled off the highway in Las Vegas, because that was the first In-n-out they came to!). Now we know the reason Rob wanted to keep his sense of taste- smart man! Seriously, I enjoyed the hospitality the two times I visited with you; I believe that God still has plans for both of you, and Jeremiah 29:11 tells me that they are good - even if we don't know what they are.. Yours in Him, Bill Osborn, CC Budapest.
