Interesting week

WOW what a weekend we have had. Friday we were to spend the evening with Vicki's mother and family to celebrate Christmas since her mother is going to Seattle to be with Vicki's sister for Christmas. Just as we walked into the house, the cell phone began to ring and ring and ring with various numbers popping up.

I answered one of the calls and it was Good Samaritan Hospital calling to tell us Heather has been involved in a serious accident and we needed to get to the hospital right away. The next call was the Phoenix Police calling to ask for family to respond to 30 street and Cactus where there had been an accident. Heather had been riding her bicycle home from work and had been struck by a vehicle which had turned in front of her at approximately 25MPH. Heather had been knocked off her bicycle and had a badly broken left leg and numerous scrapes and bruises. since Heather had been knocked about 30 feet and rolled after striking the pavement, she was classified as a level one trauma patient and transported to the hospital. Surgery at 10PM for a broken tibia and fibula. Heather is healing and has gone home to continue her healing.

Since family relations are still strained this made for a difficult evening yet with all the prayers, God came through in a Big way. Well after dealing with Heather, Vicki's mother called yesterday to say she is seeing a cardiologist for heart problems and they need to do an angiogram asap. Her mother is still going to Seattle and will have her operation January 4, 2010.

Please keep our family in prayers as we heal from our wounds and God continue to guide the doctors as they work on our loved ones.

We are so looking forward to 2010 and are excited to place this year behind us as we move forward.
