Good Friday Morning!

Good Friday Morning everyone! Well it's almost afternoon here now, but it's Thursday evening at home. Richard is getting everything ready to head over to the hospital. They have their patients come the night before surgery and finish up any testing that they need to do so the patient is all ready to go. We had a good visit with one of the surgeons yesterday. He said they have really good results with the neck artificial disc surgeries. The hospital is really clean and nice. He will have a private room. The people are really friendly. There is an American couple here that works with Med Retreat the place Richard went through for the surgery, and they got us a cell phone that we can use to call home cheap. We have to change rooms I guess. Richard just came back. I was going to stay in the hospital with him the whole time but he doesn't think I'll be comfortable and so he wanted me to stay at the hotel, but I guess we need to change rooms. Anyways, everything is going really good so far. The place is nice, almost like home except all of you aren't right here with us except in prayers. We will post more later. God Bless each of you for your love and prayers. We are so thankful and blessed. I praise God for answering them. I praise him for loving us so much. The surgery is tomorrow / Friday for you all at 4:30 pm. It will last 3 hours. Pray that God almighty guide the surgeons hands as he works on Richard and that he recovers so well we can use that to glorify God and be a witness here. This is a Muslim country and handing out tracks is not a good idea. You could get talked to by the police if you hand a track to a Muslim person, if they accept they could go to jail. Pray for the people witnessing here it's tough.
