Personal Update

August 8, 2012 — 1 Comment

Wow. A lot is happening right now.

I just got back from 2 weeks out of town for summer camp and a family reunion. We found out that my amazing wife is pregnant with our second child! WOOHOO! And to top it all off, I’m having surgery tomorrow morning.

Surgery room

I was in a bad sports accident 5 years ago that completely shattered my left ankle.

Tomorrow we will be evicting the steel plate and 8 screws that have been taking residence in my leg for the last 5 years.

The surgeon will also remove a bone spur, clean up scar tissue, and check into what might be a degenerative bone bruise.

Depending on what they find when they go in, it will either be 3 weeks or 3 months before I walk again.

So, as you can imagine, I am really looking forward to it. (sarcasm)

Thank you everyone for your prayers and support. And please disregard any crazy blog postings or tweets over the next few days… that will be the meds talking.

When life is crazy, God is still in control.
