Update


Since his procedure on Wednesday David has been under observation in the hospital. A few complications have arisen, which necessitate another operation tomorrow morning. His stent is blocked by a blood clot, which needs to be removed, and another stent will be added, in order to take some of the pressure off of his portal vein. This should not be as risky as the operation he had on Wednesday. Still, it is not the development we were hoping for, but we are pushing on, and David is hopeful that this will alleviate his symptoms.
We welcome healing thoughts and prayers. We have been, and continue to be, fortified by the love and good wishes of our families and friends. Peace and blessings to all of you.
