Peter's Health

Peter has not been feeling well this last week, nausea, pain in stomach area, headaches, last night we noticed a lump on his abdominal area, his left side.
We've determined that the mesh has broken loose and his intestines have torn out.  There is nothing that the dr's can do at this point, he's got to loose weight and fast.  We've ordered a special wrap for him, we'll get it on monday and he's got to stop lifting and bending so much.
Please pray that God will give me the strength to pick up Peter's part of the load in doing things for the RV as well as my own load of setting up for the shows.  He will not give up the driving, we're trying to keep him from driving for too long at one stretch by giving us plenty of time between shows.
We are still loving being on the road, but I'm concerned that we're not seeing dr's as we should, and my arthritis is getting worse in my hands and knees. I've got the lumpy kind in my hands and wrists, once in the last month I woke up and there was a lump on my thumb the size of a large pea.  And it hurt, after a week or so, the pain has subsided but the lump is there there.  I think I've learned how to use it so that it doesn't hurt as much.  The same with my right wrist, I'm learning to minimize the pain... I do take asprin sometimes but it's not good for my stomach so I tend to live with it.
Today we're working on 1/4" leads, Peter is feeling better,

Tell Petee that I said to behave himself and take it easy. Brother Bob says so. I'll be praying for you Petee!
