The 'Hip'pest family around

My Dad has had some trouble lately with his syatica and that has translated to his hip. He was out of commission for about two weeks, then got a steriod shot. He started feeling better and went back to work (too soon). Next thing you know, he's out of commission again! So when we go over to swim, he hobbles out using a cane. That is a strange sight to me. My father has always been larger than life and physically capable of handling just about any situation!

My mother is in need of a hip replacement. She has no cartilidge cushioning her hip joint and is in severe pain on a daily basis. She had originally scheduled her surgery for the first week in July, but has pushed it off for a number of reasons.

Please be in prayer for my parents. I love them very much and hate to see either one in pain!
