Progress





Today was a good day, for me, Jeff.  I took the kids to a playground with a water park and sand play area.  Miriam, Elijah and David spent a long time in the sand area making mud for piggies.  It was a very elaborate and very important job.  Tomorrow they are planning to make poop for gorillas.   Also very important, since we discovered the last time we went to the zoo that gorillas do, in fact, from personal experience, eat poop.  Both jobs are very messy, therefore they need to take baths three times a day.

While I was there I got a call from Rebecca.  She talked to two different doctors today and things are moving along pretty well!  The basic plan at this point is that they will make some space behind his eyelid and put in a hard plastic conformer.  Then they will over time put in larger and larger conformers.  The great news is that we should only need one surgery and they can send the conformers with us for us to put in ourselves!  They will schedule the surgery for as soon as they can.  It looks like we may be going back to Minnesota, but only for a little while.  At least, that is as much of a guess as we have for today.  It's progress, so we are grateful.

As far as our visa paperwork, it still has not arrived.   Please pray that it shows up!   If it has been lost, it could be very hard to replace.  We are leaving our apartment here in Ft Collins this Saturday, so the paperwork needs to arrive by then!

Thanks for praying!

-Jeff
