Update on Bonnie's Son-in-law
You may or may not know that Bonnie VanProoyen's son-in-law, Robert, has been battling amputation due to diabetes. Here's what Bonnie writes as an update:
Robert and Sandra were at the Little Rock, Ar. V A hospital early this morning for the surgery scheduled for 10 A.M. They didn't do the surgery until 2:45 P.M. It was such a long day of waiting. They cut the front part of his right foot with the toes, and the Doctor told them it was a success! Praise the Lord!!! They finally got him in a room about 7 P.M. and then he could have some food. They think they cut out all of the infection that was in the bone, and hopefully, will get the results back tomorrow. If not tomorrow, then it won't be available until Monday, as usually, nothing much happens over the weekend in hospitals.
God provided Sandra with a special blessing in the waiting room. A Baptist Bible study group came to stay with someone from their church, whose husband was having surgery. It was so good for Sandra, feeling so alone and so far from home, to be with fellow believers. One couple even invited Sandra to spend the night at their home, but she elected to go back to the motel. God is so good!!!
We can't thank you all enough for all your concern, compassion, and prayers. Sandra wants you to know how much she felt your prayers, and how God gave her and Robert such peace through it all. We say so often, what would we do if we didn't have the Lord!!! We are so thankful and so blessed!!!
