SURGERY

We took Sky down to Mesa yesterday and they were able to remove the oil bubble!!!! He is in pain, but is handling it pretty well. At one point the dr. came out and told me that he thought he would have to remove Sky's lens. I was freakin out to say the least, but once in there the lens was okay and they were able to leave it alone!!! Dr. Graff told us that we are doing something right, because he should have taken it out. Dr. Graff is AWESOME!! He is LDS and really likes Skyler, so we are getting the best care for him!!!!!!
On another note, my dad is fighting cancer right now and it has gotten worse. My sister Kandra wrote about the cancer and treatments they are going to do on him on her blog--- http://www.kandjowens.blogspot.com/  She really did a good job explaining it. Please keep him in your prayers.

Wendy, I am so glad Sky is doing ok. That is always scarry. My prayers are with him, and with your dad. I have a sister inlaw with a brain tumor that can't be operated on, and it is stage 3 cancer. Some of her friends put together a walk for her for April 3rd. There are so many things happening right now. It sure is the signs of the times. May God bless you and your family.

I'm glad to hear everything went well for Skyler. Hope his recovery isn't too long or painful.

We're so glad Sky is doing well with his eye! Miracles, small and large are wonderful--tender mercies from heaven. It was good to see Summer this past week. She looked good.

You go through so much with your family, and yet....you are strong!!!! You are such a good example on enduring to the end! thank you sister skousen. I love you so much!
