New date for Peter’s Operation

Peter went to the Doctor again today and he has been given a ‘clean bill of health’... The dreaded flu is a thing of the past! His surgeon has now confirmed that his surgery has been rescheduled for this Wednesday (3 September). He is to be admitted to the Life Vincent Pallotti Hospital tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday 2 September). He is expected to be in hospital for 2 weeks and the post-op recuperation is expected to be approximately 6-8 weeks. Peter is relieved that the date has now been confirmed but also decidedly nervous and anxious about Jeanette, as he does everything for her! Lydia is still staying with us and Jeanette appreciates having her around for companionship. We are waiting for confirmation from the nursing services who are trying to find a nurse to assist us with Jeanette's daily home care over the next 2-4 weeks.

Please send Uncle Peter my love and tel himmy thoughts and prayers wil be with him. And tell him to remember the "Footprints in the Sand" poem, when the Lord said:

"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
