Update on Dougs surgery

Hello friends,

Doug is in surgery now and should be for at least another hour or two. It could possibly go longer. Then recovery will take another hour or so.

Ben, Bekah, Nate, and Rachel are all here keeping me very good company. Thank you so much for your prayers and kind notes and texts. We are blessed indeed.

We will keep you posted as soon as there is something to post.

With love,
Nancy, for Doug too, though he is asleep.
