Angel has had his third lab test in three days. The first two were for urinary tract infections and the one today was the 'dreaded' blood test. Dreaded because it requires a needle! This one was a blood test to see if he's okay for surgery. Angel needs to be circumcised...ouch! Tight skin is the cause of his infections and now surgery is to be scheduled for Thursday, we hope.

The doctor said he will be down for one week and it will be painful. His school starts on Thursday, but we should be able to get his assignments and keep him caught up from home. The cost is 18,000 limps...cheap by U.S. standards, but when you take hits like that on an already thread-bare budget it makes you wince a little.

Please pray for Angel; he's tough, but he's going to be very sore for a few days.
