We wanted to send a quick update out about Mom and Dad. They have been making their way in Arkansas for the past 6 months. Dad has been helping at church and Mom has been working hard walking around the house! Although our family would love them to come to MN we understand with Covid-19 that may not be the wisest choice at this time. 

Mom has been struggling with some pain and UTI issues for about 6 months. The doctors found through CT scan Friday and scoping Monday she has a 10mm kidney stone. They will be using a lithroscopy procedure to break up the stone. Along with stent placement, they hope to prevent the particles from causing further infections. She will have that procedure Friday and will either go home same day or the following day.

Other big news is Dad is having a knee replacement surgery on 6/30. Elizabeth and Natalia are heading down to help with his recovery. They plan to stay for 2 weeks or so. Dad's doctor said full recovery will take 6 weeks, but he should be up and at em by 2 weeks post-op!

Prayers that Mom's procedure Friday will go well with no complications. We also ask that her recovery would be quick and the same for Dad's knee replacement! Finally, safe & healthy travels to Elizabeth and Natalia as they head to Arkansas.

Thank you for your continued prayers!
