How did Stephanie make out?

I don't expect to hear from her until Monday, Mike, as this sort of operation is of the radical nature, not outpatient. They have to make sure all of the digestive process work.

I emailed her father, Gerry Buck, who sent me the following reply:

Hi, Daryl,

Sorry I haven't been on for a while.

They said the surgery would take about 2 hours if all went well, 3 - 4 if they had problems.

All the prayers offered up for her worked, the whole thing (surgery) only took 1 hour.

The doctor also said (before surgery) he might have to take the gall bladder, ... WRONG!!!!!, he got in and discovered it was in great shape.

If everything else goes as well as this, she will be able to go home this Friday, 10/10, so, now you know what I know.

Thanks for asking me, she asked me to send a report, and I forgot, just too busy and really tired.

God bless, and thank you again,

Gerry

Thank you, Lord, for answering our prayers.

He is faithful Who promised "I will never leave you or forsake you."

Happy Sabbath everyone! I thank you for all your prayers! I am just lettign you know that I am home. I won't be on much during the next couple weeks because I am still so sore. God is so GOOD! I will tell you that if I am unable to get on, my husband or sister will be here to let you know how I am doing. Again,
thank you so much!
Love,
your sister,
Stephanie

You just rest up, Steph: we can wait for a full report when you're good n' ready.
The Lord got you through just fine, huh?

Amen! Thank you, Jesus. I love good news.

Just a quick note, sorry I haven't been on here as much as I should, but, I am running for 3 different families and barely have enough time to turn around.
All is well with Stephanie and her family, Davey is back to tesaing Grammie and

Dave is his more normal self as well.
I hope as things settle down I will have more time.
Thank you all for your prayers,
God bless.

I am also very happy to hear the good news!!!
