oh and to answer your other question, I am back woodburning.  Got a little burnt out on it.  Just finished this one for Buff (Marty Thomas).  And just posted a listing on the ST Jude auction...

This might be my best one yet!

Praise God and praying for the miracles of God to bless you lives.

Thank you, Benbow and 4dogs!

Back when Garrett was going through his surgeries there was someone else on here who had a grandson or nephew that was having heart surgery...was it you, 4dogs?  I know I was praying for them, just hoping it turned out well!

Yes it was me Chip. My grand daughter. After her third surgery she did well for a long time then her heart kept getting weaker and weaker to the point she developed P.L.E.  Very touch and go. They suggested we take her to a lower altitude as that sometimes helps. I packed her up and took her to the Childrens hospital in Houston Texas for am month and a half. It didn't help. She needed a new heart. Got back home via a flight for life from Houston to Denver and got on the list. I was in constant conversation with God. Everyone we knew and a lot of folks I didn't know prayed for her. She was blessed with a new heart three weeks later......She is now a happy healthy  13 year old, she is with me every day. We spend a lot of time together shooting our bows, doing homework, playing baseball....just living.  I cant tell you how much she means to me, how special she is. I was blessed with a very understanding boss and able to spend a lot of time with her from the time she was born, through all involved with four open heart surgeries and all the in between stuff that you know all too well also.  I'm a very lucky and blessed man.  Thank you for your prayers Chip...I KNOW that's what made the difference for us.... I have so many wonderous things happen over the years spent around these hospitals... miracles. These kids that have been through these things are very  special, touched by the hand of GOD and watched by angels....Really, Ive seen it and see it every day.

Praise God 4dogs and may God continue to increase the health and blessings He has given for both of you guys. You both are great examples of fatherly love.

4dogs,

That is so good to hear!  Praise the Lord!  I was almost afraid to ask for fear that things didn't go well.  Then was holding my breath as I read your post!  Don't know when Garrett will need another surgery, but certainly am not looking forward to going through all that again!
