my stepmom Robin

Hi Everyone!

I had to re-word some of this because email hasn't been working...
this was supposed to go out Sunday.

My stepmom Robin has been battling with chronic pancreas problems for
a long time. She is frequently in and out of the emergency room and
hospital because of it. Last year she even went to see a specialist
in Seattle because the doctors in NM didn't think they were qualified
to deal with her problems! Up to now she hasn't had much relief from
the different treatments that they have put her on. A few weeks ago
she was referred to a specialty surgeon there in Albuquerque. After
seeing her he decided that she needed a special surgery to help her
condition. The surgery was yesterday, Monday. I haven't heard from
my dad yet to know how it went. This was a very difficult procedure
and will take a long time to recover from. Please pray for her as she
recovers. She is supposed to be in the intensive care for a day or
two after the procedure then they will transfer her to a step down
unit. Please also pray for my dad as he tries to balance work and
taking care of her. I will let you know as soon as I know how she is
doing. Thanks in advance for your prayers!

love,
k
