Update on my Papa

Two weeks ago my papa fell getting out of his truck, luckily he was with my uncle Larry, and not alone. He broke his hip and had to have a rod and two pins put in. They were worried about how well he would do through the surgery but he made it through. The Dr. was really pleased. There were so many friends and family with us through his surgery, it was very emotional. After the surgery, the Dr. came in to talk to us, and couldn't believe how many people were there. He said we really packed the house and it was the biggest crowd he had seen! Of course, anyone who knows him, knows how stubborn he is and he refused to stay in bed or ask for help. They transfered him to rehab but he is now back in the hospital. He is very dehyrdated and lethargic. He is just not himself and very confused at times. He wont eat or drink anything except corn bread and buttermilk. :) Please pray for a full recovery for him as he has a long road ahead. Papa seems to really enjoy it when I take Garrison up there for visits. He just waves to him and says Hi Big Boy! It is cute.

My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. (Psalm 62:1-2)
