Subject: Update, one prayer answered. Yahootie!

I got a phone call a while ago from Kathy, Micki's back surgery has been postponed! Her leg doctor found out about it and nearly flipped out because if Micki puts any weight on her broken leg at all it could mean surgery on the leg as well. She has a spiral break, and it was a borderline decision not to operate on it in the first place, so if she should fall forward and put weight on it, there's a high chance that it would snap and become compounded, then she would need to have pins and wires put into her leg too. He also told her that crutching around with an incision in her lower back would put excessive stress on it too, and could cause a worse problem there than she has.

Like I said before, I could not understand why the back surgeon would even consider going ahead with the operation knowing she's on crutches and could injure herself worse, especially since he had told her previously that she can do absolutely "nothing" around the house for at least a month, not even the dishes. I found out tonight why he was eager to go ahead with the operation, he's retiring at the end of the month. So Micki is scheduled to see a new back surgeon in March, hopefully the leg will be healed by then.

Thanks to all of you for your prayers, seems we shook up a few things today and the angels brought this matter to the attention of somebody who could influence changes and stop things from happening in the nick of time. Please don't stop praying though, there's still a lot going on that needs intervention from above. Thanks y'all.

Peace, love and grateful hugs,
A much relieved old bird
