Update

Just wanted to let you know Marcy's surgery went very well. Her doctor took out a 2+ cm tumor out of the back of the knee on the 'fat pad', which turned out to be non-cancerous, and did some repair on the cartiage on the back of the kneecap. So all is improving for her. The doctor said he had never seen such a thing on a knee before. We know the Lord blessed her with healing.

I am glad to hear that Marcy is through her surgery. Is that the only picture of Marcy that you could find?

The invasive nature of the surgery is much less than it was when Randy Vance had surgery on his knee. He had three scars from 4 or five inches above the knee joint to a few inches below, one in front and one on each side.

I suppose that they used a borescope and some remote controlled tools for the surgery, where the borescope went in the little incision and the tools went in the other incision.

About all they needed was a couple bandaids.

It was that way when they did the surgery on my shoulder too. I had three "puncture" wounds. One for a light, and two for surgical instruments. It's amazing what they can do to fix us up.

I hope Marcy gets to feeling better quickly.

Take it easy while you can Marcy. You'll be all well and up and at it before you know it. Glad it all went well.

If you notice the time on Jeanette's comment you will ask yourself what she was doing at that hour.

Why was she blogging at 2:50 AM? Well it was actually 3:50 AM as there is an hour difference between the home of the blog and the timezone in which we reside.

She was ready to go to New York with Debra. Debra was on the couch begging for 15 more minutes of sleep. It was pathetic to watch Debra begging for more sleep while she was lying on the couch with her head covered.

How are you Marcy?
