A woman was operated on that had an ovarian cyst that weighed 55 pounds this is not a typo, it was 55 lbs, located in her abdomen. They came back completely amazed and even had pictures. I will spare you the detailed ones!
This was the surgeon Dr. Saskia and assisting her was Dr. John helping for 3 weeks from the states. Cell phones and cameras in the O.R?
Stories of infected legs, broken bones, most are from falling from trees, car accidents, and machetti injuries. When we get home have a conversation with either of them, they will be happy to share their stories. They are amazing!
Thanks for keeping us in your prayers. We all are feeling good, just tired, hot and sweaty.
Prayer Requests:
- That we could get the windows done, they are at times frustrating, but the guys are perservering.
- Safety while they work. We are working on the second level of the building.

Hi, and it is hard to imagine that surgery of that magnitude is done there. Lots of prayer and help from above make them successful. We finally have a sunny day. I'm proud of each of you and pray for your safety daily--be very careful when working on the second floor.
Love and prayers, Mom/Marj

Good job Yoder! Watching surgeries has always been your favorite past time...proud of you for stepping out in faith and into the humidity, which we came to Washington to get away from. You really were called to this trip. Love you,
Janine
