| Most of you have probably heard that my family and I will be going on a long (2,000+ miles) bike trip leaving April 30th. If you'd like to read about it please visit www.xanga.com/fivebikingbruces . There is info there now and it will be being update throughout our trip. It won't be everyday, as we aren't likely to have internet access that frequently. But I hope at least every couple of days. |

| Melissa's surgery was postponed till tomorow. I babysat the kids 1-7 today cause the surger was supposed to be happening at 3. It kept geting postponed till eventually they just said tomorow. Aparently the surgery that the surgeon had going before Melissa's was having major complications, or at least time consuming ones. That was why they couldn't do the surgery, ya gotta have a surgeon to have a surgery! |

| :EDIT: Scheduling has changed. The surgery is now 3-5PM today
Another prayer request, but this one is more urgent.
Today at 10-12, Melissa, mother of the triplets I take care of, will be having surgery. I can't really explain it well but it is for removing some scar tissue that is somehow affecting her lungs. Liquid has been filling up around her one lung (or maybe both, I don't remember) and compressing it. Obviously, making it not be able to work. I'm not sure exactly how serious is it, but I know that its NOT minor. I'll be watching her kids so that the grandmother (who has been staying with them this week during all this) can be at the hospital. |

| Yesturday when we went to visit the residents at the nursing home we found out that one, Ruth, was dying. We had known that her health was declining, but had no idea that she was that bad, this soon. We got to see her, she was unresponsive, but maybe God let her know we were there. I called today and found out that she died this morning. Please keep her family in your prayers, I know that she has at least one son and daughter-in-law. Also please pray for us, this is the first person that my 11 year old sisters have known that has died. We'll be going to her funeral, though I have to find out when it is. |
