Dad Peters in the hospital after surgery

Dad Peters went into the hospital on May 12th to have his cancerous bladder removed. His recovery was going fairly well when the sutures and staples opened when hw was caughing. He went back into surgery and he's recovering faster this time around. Nancy Dyer flew in from Denver to help Mom (and all of us). What a blessing! She's flying back to Denver today and we'll miss her! Mom is doing fairly well under the circumstances - not eating much, and wants Dad home. But, the reality is - he's probably going to have to go to a rehab center for a week or so. Carol, Nancy, and Mom cleaned house yesterday. Etienne (Mike) did the lawn for Dad last weekend. Cindy & Clay Nagel brought dinner one evening this week. We just want to thank everyone for your help during this time! I'll try to post news as soon as I can - I kinda put things on the back burner for a while until we knew what was going on with Dad. His pathology report came back - he's cancer free! Now, we just need him to get back to normal. Thanks to everone for your prayers and calls!
