All went well!

The surgery today went well. Linda did great and we believe the results will be functional for her and she will be continent again. Her mother started crying and kissing us after surgery. Together we gave thanks to God that all went well. I also give thanks to have a colleague to discuss, share and work with. While neither of us had done a vaginal pull through procedure before, together it was less intimidating and went smoothly. 

A pastor recently pointed out to me that Paul always had someone with him and when he didn't he requested that someone come and help. Going together to the mission field is established in the Bible and the more Sharon and I work together the more I understand the importance of going together.

Sara, that's wonderful! What an answer to prayer! Thank you so much for sharing this story. And I love your comparison to Paul...we are definitely better together! Can't wait to see you soon!

Thanks to God for guiding you and Sharon through a difficult procedure. Two are always better than one. We are thankful you now have a good colleague to work with everyday. Atta girl. Well done Sara.
Love, Grammie

Bwana asifui (I hope I spelled that right). I'm so glad everything went well! Just curious, what textbook did you use for the procedure?
