A Surprise from Melissa


Last Friday Melissa had to be taken to the hospital for emergency surgery. We thought she had kidney stones but were shocked to find out her ovary had to be removed because it was the size of a small football! She and the baby seem to be fine but she will be very restricted in her activities during the rest of this pregnancy. On Tuesday she decided she needed to get out of Christian's hair so he could continue his schooling, and we took Anders and Melissa to Park City where she has to stay down but can be close to the fun. Anders even seems to understand that his mommy can't hold him for a while and he likes to sleep with Grandma and Grandpa. We are so grateful for all the help we have had with babysitting, food, substituting, and other things during this time. We are also thankful for the concern and prayers in our behalf. Here is the now famous picture of the ovary that almost ate Melissa.
