Steve and Tracy Geis

We know a lot of people are praying for the Geis'as well, so we wanted to give an update on them. Tracy had surgery for a broken jaw and has been out of the hospital for severl weeks. She is the primary caregiver for Steve; however, she is still dealing with subtantial issues with her teeth and jaw. She is needing signifigant orthodonic work to realign her jaw. Steve is facing 2 more unexpected surgeries next week, one on his big toe and the other, his knee cap. He is still flat on his back due to his seriously injured legs and hip. He will probably be non-weight-bearing for another 3 + weeks. Steve is in good spirits, remarkable attitude, still can only think day-to-day due to the long-range picture being too overwhelming. Please continue to pray for healing for both of them.

Today was Kim's first physical therapist appt. He recognized us from a month ago because he was working on Kacie after her knee surgery and wondered why Kim's name was on the appt. list. The therapist started with a GREAT foot massage to reduce the swelling, thought it would be nice for Tim to do this each day for Kim. He gave Kim excersises to do a couple of times a day. Because it is a holiday weekend in Australia, both Kim and Tim have a couple of appts. on Tuesday. So the next few days will be R & R, this afternoon she enjoyed sitting by the pool, in the shade taking a snooze.
