Road Block #1

If you read my post last night you read the part that said that things don't always go as planned... well things didn't go as planned!  Today while at work (yes, on chemo) my dad broke his right arm.  He was simply moving a rolling chalkboard and it just snapped... the students in the room even heard it.  The bone is very weak due to the tumor that has taken over his arm.  Mom went and picked dad up and they headed to Barnes.  They confirmed that his arm was broke and they put it in a brace.  He will see his orthopedic surgeon on Wednesday.  Ugh!  Poor guy is in a lot of pain and feeling pretty discouraged.  This was not something we anticipated and it's so frustrating because dad was handling the chemotherapy pretty well.  We may have hit a road block, but we will find a way around it.  Please pray for dad's continued strength and faith as he handles this new challenge.  We are unsure of what the orthopedist will do on Wednesday... please pray that the doctors will have a plan to help take dad's pain away and heal is arm.  Thank you for your continued prayers.

Yet I am always with you...

Psalm 73:23
