Hello again!
Thank-you for all the kind comments, we are keeping track of them and passing them on to Robert - I know it means a lot as we work to keep his spirits up. **We have changed the settings so anyone can post on this blog - not just gmail or google.com members**
We have just heard from the hospital that the small surgery to implant the brace for his hips was successful and that he is back in his room recovering. We continue to pray that this will help his body prepare for his big surgery on Friday. We also would like to see his blood work and heart rate continue to improve and are hoping he is kept safe from any complications with his lungs or potential blood clots that might infere with his recovery.
Prayers for tonight... Rest rest and more rest for Robert and also rest for us. Each day seems to last a week - we can hardly believe we have only been here a day.
We are praising the Lord for wonderful hospital staff and the Canadian Health Care System (as flawed as it is!). We are also continuely grateful to have Robert alive and able to communicate (and even joke around - go figure!). One tough lad.
Good night!

I tried to write before but I didn't get through. So here is my attempt again. I'm glad to hear that you are in a bed and on in a unit where you will get great care. You must feel like the bottom has dropped out of your life! We are praying for you. I'm sure that your athleticism and fine tuned, in shape body will will be a bonus for your recovery. If I was there, you might get a lipstick mark on your cheek from me! Just kidding!! We do love you though. You are in our thoughts and prayers constantly. Love Uncle Phil and Aunt Jan
We are thinking of you and prayingfor you throughout the day. We are trusting the Lord will help you through this ordeal and that Robert will soon be on the road to recovery. Love you very much.

I'm ashamed to admit that it took me this long to figure out how to post a comment! Well, from a tiggert to a turkey, you should know that I'm praying for you daily and Joe is too. I will I will I promise I will (pray)! =) In the words of my hero Tony the Tiger (do you remember him from the cereal box?) "Show them you're a tiger, show them what you can do, the Lord will heal you very quick, he'll bring out the tiger in you! You're grrrreat! Ok, I changed the words a bit. Love ya buddy!

I can't imagine what you are all going through at this time. May the God of peace bless you with His presence during this difficult time. You are constantly in our prayers. Blessings.
Hey Robert, I was so sad to hear of your accident this monday and have been praying for you ever since. Casey's whole church will be praying for you tonight too.
Take care,
Krysia
