Thanks Elaine, for posting about Sydney's surgery. There was a lot to organize to get 3 of us to Rochester, MN, our son to his friend's for the week we will be here with Sydney and organize his visits, tie up things at work and at home, and I just didn't get to this posting.
Sydney is currently undergoing her 8-12 hour surgery to correct her scoliosis (curved spine) we've been treating for nearly 4 years now. She will be straight once and for all, with no brace anymore! She's been amazing through all this and now we just await the end. Like Elaine said, many more details and posts on the CaringBridge website.

Just a quick note to let everyone know that Ellen's daughter, Sydney, is having spine surgery tomorrow (Feb. 16th) at the Mayo Clinic. Here is a link to a website that she set up to keep family and friends informed. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/sydneymiller1 If you want to post anything to it, you'll need to set up a simple free account.
Please keep Sydney and her family in your prayers.

Tom's Birthday, February 1, 2012
Tom definitely had a birthday this year John and even had a party. You probably already know he wasn't at home when his cousins helped him celebrate. Click on the collage to see more detail.

Prayer Request
Hello All,
I have a special prayer request. Our oldest son Josh has been diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. He has a large tumor at the base of his esophagus where it enters the stomach. It has begun to spread into his lymphatic system and the prognosis is terminal.
He started chemo-therapy last week via a pump system hooked to a pic line in his chest. He is going to U of M next week for further tests and a surgical review with his oncologist in Ionia.
There is hope, but at the same time we are being realistic as a family that time is probably short. We lost his Dad three years ago and this is a hard reminder that life is short and we need to cherish each day God gives us together and live life to its fullest.
Josh was diagnosed just a few weeks ago after having difficult symtoms since early last summer. His local doc has not been very responsive and he is getting fantastic help in Ionia with close coordination with U of M.
We covet your thoughts and prayers.
Nan & Steve
