Hi Jesus Christ disciples,
Please pray for my wife and the medical team that will be doing her left hip replacement surgery on Friday. It will start at 6:00 AM (noon here in Germany). The surgeon is probably one of the best in and is doing the surgery for her because one of his assistant nurses is Dolo's former boss a while back. The hospital started in about 1950 on the land that had been for providing a nice place for handicapped children since the early 1900s. A handicapped lady had the vision in the late 1800s. In the hospital, there are plain crosses and Christian calendars on the walls. There is a New Testament with Psalms/Proverbs in each patient locker. There is a lake even. I took some photos during our morning in the hospital and will take more and post them in my Multiply and Diino sites. Dolo's mother like the way the check in process for Dolo was so thorough, more than the hospital where she had her hip and knee surgeries. Dolo first signed up for that hospital because this one was where when she was 5 years old had to spend 10 weeks after she had fallen on her left side. She is scheduled to stay there until the 16th and then will go to a nice resort like rehabilitation place in an area famous for its water. This hospital had 3 bottles of that water on her table. She will stay there for 2-3 weeks, and only pay 10€ per night. While the social worker was with us, we realized that it is good that Dolo is having the surgery 5 years earlier than intended because it could be soon that hospital stays after surgery could be reduced to 3-4 days like in the USA and Great Britain and the live-in rehabilitation would be replaced with out-patient therapy sessions.
Update: Dolo will loose her two roommates by Saturday and may move to the window bed. She had a nice 45-minute walk around the lake. She doesn't like not being able to eat anything all morning and only drink a a little water with the pill to prepare her for anesthesia. BTW, we are 6 hours ahead of EST.
Please also pray in regards to the following:
1.) Lisa and her two youngest children are still not able to leave England to visit Carey in South Africa. The airlines Lisa had originally booked with did not rebook them. They could not go over a month ago as planned because the passports were not ready. (There home had been robbed earlier this year and amongst the things take were the passports.) Due to her battling with cancer, Lisa can only do part time work via the computer and some don't pay her for her web designing. She needs to see her oldest daughter.

Hi Bill,
Thank you for the email. This year has so far been an extremely difficult one. We are still waiting on the Lord's Blessings to rain down. Financially we are on the brink of absolute chaos. My health is still not doing well. I have had to stop taking the natural supplements I was taking as we can no longer afford it and my health has suffered for it.
My husband, Dante, his father is dying of cancer. He is very sick and NOT saved. Dante has been trying to share the Lord with him but not getting a response or his dad changes the subject. So we went and bought his dad a nice bible and Dante is writing a letter from his heart for his dad and going to give that too him. We don't know what else to do. We will continue to pray.......if you could please send that request out to your prayer warriors world wide we would greatly appreciate it. His dad has lung cancer and it has spread to his lymph nodes and his bones and spine as well. Only in a matter of months. The doctors have not been able to do chemo for the last 2 weeks because his blood counts are far too low. His name is Frank and his salvation is first and foremost the most important.
Please continue to pray for a financial blessing for us as we are very far in debt and need to get out!
I will email again when I have some praise reports to send!!
Onward with my two cats and my Internet ministries,
