Good Morning men

today is a very emotionally draining day for me. My uncle is in Boston for a surgery to his brain stem to repair a rupture that happened a month ago. the surgery itself could take anywhere from 9-20 hours and the doctor performing is the best in the world at this procedure. With that said the risk of death is high for this and I'm very close to my uncle and he's only in his mid 50's and healthy otherwise. I already took a minute with my little ladies to say a prayer but I would like to use the extended prayers of my MT brothers because the power of positivity is always appreciated and needed in times like this. I won't know much until later today probably while I'm working but needless to say my heart and mind are somewhere else and even work is totally secondary today.


Ok to not bring down the mood how was everyone's weekend? We had a great family dinner on turkey day and then we had a great time at my daughters cheerleading regional finals.


Have a great day everyone!

Steve I just had to go back to yesterdays thread to find out what happened with your sister and I'll add her into the prayers I've already said and will continue to say throughout the day. :grouphug:

Good Morning Gents! Just dropped off the family at the airport. It was GREAT Gavin them around, but I'm ready for our usual space and quiet hahaha.

Steve - hope all goes well for your sister!

Paul - BIG thoughts sent your way from here for your Uncle and family. Sounds like there is some great support so I hope everyone can remain positive as possible.

Nikon. Both are going to be great cameras, but I am and always will be a Nikon guy. The 5100 has been on my want list since I sold my 3100 last fall...

Paul, I'll keep your uncle in ny prayers as well, today. As much as I'll be praying, I'll have plenty of opportunities to ask the Lord to wrap his arms around your uncle also. It's a good thing The Big Guy has a never ending reach.

An update on my sis. They've got her temperature down to 101 and she's off the ventilation. She isn't responsive, but is breathing on her own. There's still a ling row to plow though. The major fear right now is the fever, coupled with her MS, will result in severe brain damage. Our family needs all the prayer we can get. She's a single mother of three, and the only ones left in our family are her, my mother and me.

Paul, if you could PM me your uncles name, I'll start sending up the prayers. Always feel uncomfortable asking God to help someone's uncle. Prefer to give him a name.

My sis' name is Gabriel, for anyone interested.
