Road Trip

Lexius Louie, one of the gentlemen in our old peoples feeding program broke his femur a couple of months ago. It was not a simple break. It broke just below the ball of the hip joint. It is not going to be a matter of just reseting the bone, they are going to have to replace the top part of the bone. With the help of a missionary doctor we have found a visiting surgeon that is willing to do the surgery. The surgeon is arriving on Saturday as part of a medical work team. He is bring the donated supplies to repair Lexius' leg. The surgery is scheduled for Monday morning. Lexius needs to be at the hospital on Sunday morning to begin his pre-surgery testing. The only bump in this project is that the hospital is up on the north coast of Haiti. They tell me that it will only take 8 hours to drive up there. So we will leave here on Saturday morning at 6:00am, that should give us plenty of time to get up there and get him settled. Then I will return on Sunday morning.

• Pray for safe travels
• Pray for the surgical staff as they prepare for the surgery
• Pray that Lexius will adjust quickly to his new hip
