Hello...My name is Brenda. I am having ankle surgery on the 19th of September. Dr's rules are I will have to be weighless for 8 weeks while casted. I live alone in a tri level and have two 90 pound doberman pinchers and one really big Tom Cat who lives only upstairs because of the dogs. Please pray that I am able to get my home situated and in balance before my surgery date, and that I have tolerance with my dogs during my recovery. I have found a dog walker which is great news. I pray for a speedy recovery and a speedy surgery. I have faith and trust in my surgeon and the hosptial where I will be for outpatient surgery. Please thank God for the wonderful church family that I have, who have committed to sign me up for the "meal" program, which I didn't even know they had. I'm very blessed that I have people out there that have promised to look out for me during my recovery. Thank you.
