Ms Hazel went in to surgery 1:06 pm today Nov.27 for knee replacement.
And as soon as Don calls back to let me know she's out of surgery, I'll post it here.
Keep them both in your thoughs and prayers.

Talk to Don at 6:45 Hazel was sleeping and he came home. He said he was very tired, it had been a long day, "I sat in the same chair for over 3 hours". They will get her up to walk tomorrow.

Talk to Ms Hazel at 11:am this morning and she is moving down to therapy today for a few days before going home. Sounded in very good spirits. She wanted me to tell everyone "thanks for all the thoughts and prayers".

I went up to see Ms Hazel this morning,..she had just finished another round of therapy. She will probably be in the Re-hab mode for another week or so(not sure). While she was resting, Don and I went out for breakfast. When we got back, Ms Hazel was feeling better. I will talk with her and Don again tomorrow. Ron

Hey guys and gals, we had to play at the Christmas R.O.P.E. Social today, and Don came and visited and ate dinner with us. He had just left Ms Hazel,..said she was coming along fine, but dosen't get her therapy on the weekends, so it looks like she'll start again tomorrow(Monday). Thanks to you all for all your thoughts and Prayers. They are much appreciated. As soon as Hazel gets out of the Re-hab center and gets back home, Don and I have a winter project...we are going to do a Gospel CD together. Don and Ms Hazel are two wonderful folks and we pray for her quick recovery and for both their very stressful times. Thanks so much. Ron

I have talked with Don and Hazel this evening and Hazel has been transferred from the rehabilitation center where she was recovering from having her two knee caps replaced back to the hospital for treatment of a colon problem that has showed up. She is due to be operated on very soon so she needs our prayers. Scotty
