Burn Surgery

Hey I just thought I would let you all know that next Thursday the 24th of April Jonas will be having surgery in Sacramento California. He has some areas across his chest that are really tight and starting to cause a hunched posture, so they wanted to correct it before it got too out of control. So basically they are going to cut then stretch out the skin stitch it back together and possibly do some skin grafting in a few small areas. They tell me it is an outpatient surgery but may possibly keep him over night depending on how much they do end up doing. We are going to stay in California for a week because they want to check his healing 2 and 7 days after the surgery. Scott's mom and two sisters are going to go with Jonas and I. Scott's aunt lives 5 miles from the hospital so it will be really nice to be able to stay with her instead of staying in a hotel for a week. Anyway.... please keep Jonas in your prayers that day! (well and me too because they whole thing makes me an emotional wreck)Thanks so much and I will let you all know how it goes!

We will be praying for Jonas. The Lord will make all of these afflictions turn for our good. Going through them is such a refining and humbling experience that can bring us such deep feelings. Good luck with the ongoing care. Love Dan
