Could use your thoughts and prayers

Post by Ranger Ron »

HH6 and I just found out that we will be going to Lincoln on the evening of the 19th of Nov and stay until the 30th. Our Son-in-law, Tim, (some of you met at the linkup a year ago) has to go to Mayo's to have a Non-cancer tumor removed from his abdomen. They tried to do it in Lincoln a month ago but too many blood vessels involved. They cut him open and just sewed him back up. He has been recovering since, now gets to go through it again.

We will be keeping the boys for the week that they are up there. The surgery will be on Monday, Nov. 24th.

Can't you just use your old K-Bar and P-38 and take of this for him? Seriously, Ron, I hope all goes well and that recovery is thorough and fast.

Ranger Ron,
Your son in law, you and your family are in my prayers, may Tim have a smooth procedure and quick recovery. Oh and at this time of year in Nebraska may the weather work with you all versus against you all.
Take care, Jenny

I like Tim, good young man. Better still is the non-malignant part. Even better, they sent him to subject matter experts instead of trying to make due. All good news for damned sure. And Mayo....cant do much better. Their success rate is 20 points higher than the best facilities in the country. All stacks up to...it will be just fine. 8)
