That was fascinating! You're an excellent teacher. :)

Prayers are on the way for your good friend Mark. Please keep us posted.

Thank you all for your prayers, and boy do they ever do wonders! I received a series of text messages from Mark's wife tonight, and the surgeons and doctors say that it is a miracle that Mark is not paralyzed from the waist down. The tests after his surgery indicate that he will walk again. He has two plates and 4 screws in his lower back. He may get to have visitors as early as tomorrow.

The phone just rang, and my husband is talking to Mark!
