Re: Prayers for my husband Don
Thank you.
We are just about as ready as we can be. The house is clean, furniture has been rearranged, dogs are freshly bathed and defleaed, all the baby animals that I can get out of here are gone including two litters of piglets, a few calves and some kids , chickens have been put on free range status, one milk cow has been dried off along with several goats. Hay is stacked in the barn. A months feed is put in. The well got a new pump as the old one has been struggling to keep up for a while and having it go out while Don is down does not appeal at all. This weekend the garden will be weeded and freshly picked and the produce processed. Our sons have been enlisted to help with a few of the heavier things that get done a lot like putting out the large rolls of hay with the tractor and cleaning out the chicken houses which will not have to be done as often with the chickens out of them all day.
Now Don can rest and I am down to 40 hours/wk at work, milking two cows, feeding about 100 chickens, picking the garden for fresh stuff, etc. for a couple of weeks. I think his first thing he will be wanting to get back in the garden so we did not pull it all up and plow it under like we thought we might.
I am tempted to say I want to fast forward a month but there is something to learn in every day of life... I just want to see Don in less pain and able to continue to do what he loves for a few more years at least.

Re: Prayers for my husband Don
Thank you Lacey!
Don is out of surgery after only 4 hours (took that long to do his ACL reconstruction 10 years ago).
Now the hard part begins. Poor guy. Even the nurse could not keep her thoughts to herself about the enormity of the recovery... wish she had, I think it shook his confidence some.

Re: Prayers for my husband Don
I'm sure you will pump that confidence right back into him. Praying for you both!

Re: Prayers for my husband Don
How is Don doing now? Surely they didn't send him home after surgery, right? Will he need to go somewhere for rehab?
His name (and yours) are still hanging here on my Prayer Wall. Now I am praying that God will help him to heal and for those knees to become useable again very, very soon!

I am praying for Don and that God will give you the words of encouragement to help him through rehab. Also of course praying that God heals him quickly and gives him strength.
