Good evening.

David is still having problems with his leg. He says the leg below his knee feels like it just 'swings' when he turns as he is walking. He says it feels 'loose' inside. I dropped a note to Connie, so we will see what she says. If we have to go to S.F. that will be a bummer! He is supposed to go on October 8th anyway, but we don't think he can last that long if this doesn't get better. We just wish we knew what happened!! *sigh* I told you a LONG time ago that David is our curve-ball thrower!! He continues to be! Please continue to pray that his leg 'fixes' itself. We are thinking that maybe the part that is in the tibia is loose and spinning~~~but we aren't sure. We just know that if something happens and the implant doesn't 'take' in his leg, then he loses his leg. Please, please pray that there is nothing major wrong. He is back on crutches again; he says the leg feels too weak to support him. Thank you for your prayers.

Please continue to pray for our other osteo family members. Sara got to go home today! She already has her staples out! Please pray that she can have her pain managed at home, and that her next chemo (on Tuesday) will go ok for her. We know how hard it is to have chemo and try to recover from surgery at the same time!! Also, please pray for a little boy, named Samuel, who will be having surgery tomorrow. He will be having a rotaionplasty done. It is too hard to explain; I have put a link on the resource page. Thank you again for all your prayers.

Thank you for checking in on David and the Koury Klan. Have a good night. Sleep tight. God bless you all. We love you. {{HUGS}}
