Surgery Update

The time has finally arrived for Simon to have surgery.  We found out two nights ago from the insurance company that they have organised for him to have the operation in Nairobi.  It has been a bit of a whirlwind as we prepare for this as you can probably imagine.  The plan, at the moment, is for me to fly with Simon to Nairobi on Sunday afternoon.  He will have a meeting with the doctor on Monday at Aga Khan University Hospital and then everything depends on the outcome of that meeting as to when the surgery will take place.  We are hoping Tuesday :)

Joshua and Zara will stay with good friends of ours in Uganda whilst we are gone.  My ticket is booked to come home on Wednesday evening but this might change depending on Simon's needs.

Please be in prayer for the following things:

1.  For the surgery to be a success and that God would guide the hands of the surgeon and doctors
2.  That Joshua and Zara will be fine whilst we are gone and enjoy the "sleep overs" on school nights.
3.  For Simon and I to make wise decisions as and when the time comes
4.  For peace of mind for us all as we go through this time.
5.  Give thanks for the people who are stepping in to help us in various ways.

I will try and keep in touch via the blog with updated information.  This will depend on the availability of internet access.

Thank you for uplifting us in prayer.
