Getting Stronger

Mom's scope on Thursday went well. Dr. Ott said he wouldn't have to do another one before surgery. He was able to open things up a little more so mom has been able to eat better; in fact, she has not thrown up since then. She continues to improve in strength and in her ability to eat. She goes to the gym most every day to do senior aerobics or water aerobics. At first, dad was a little worried about her in the pool because she had been so weak; he decided to do the class with her. He had such a hard time keeping up with her he's decided she can do it on her own. :) I'm sure she will continue to heal and gain strength over the next few weeks so she will be ready for surgery.

Aloha Elder & Sister Hemenway,

We're glad there continues to be progress. We keep you in our prayers daily.

Today was the BYUH 3rd Stake Conference. There was a change in the Stake Presidency. The new presidency is:

President Phillip McArthur
President Francis HoChing
President James Lee

It's been a great blessing to be part of that great stake and we'll miss our associations there very much.

Thank you again for your wonderful service in the stake and in the 8th Ward.

May God continue to bless you!

With much love and aloha,

Von & Sherri
