Latest from the LCKs

Re the proposed relocation: a contract has been signed on another home after the contract on the first fell by the wayside when the home inspection revealed various potential problems. This second home is much more homey. Now we wait to see what develops. Closing could be in three or four weeks.

On a more serious note. If you are one of the many that have read of or seen on TV the recall of DePuy artificial hip, my sweet hubbie has that recalled hip. Tomorrow we have an appointment for an evaluation with the orthopedist that performed the hip surgery last December. Regretably, the implanted hip has been giving him increasing pain; we do not know what is in store for him. Doctors were notified in March not to use that particular hip and that was three months after Lynn's surgery, although DePuy apparently has known about problem since
2008. Apparently one in eight have hip problems with the DePuy hip. Google shows a multitude of lawyers like a lion pack clamoring for the kill in lawsuits.
Please pray for wisdom on the part of all in tomorrow's appointment with Dr. Hofammann.

We hope this home works out for you and you get to move and get settled soon. Also hope everything turns out good with the hip/prosthesis problem. No fun to be in pain!

Yes, I have seen on TV about the DuPuy artificial hip. It is always as an ad put out by lawyers. I have wondered if Lynn or Jerry might have had one of these prosthesis. We will pray for wisdom in a decision made.
Glad to hear you found a home to your liking. Hope the closing will go smoothly.

Our elation from hearing of your new home discovery immediately went to sadness when the DuPuy hip info was revealed. We will be prayerful for your appt., future healing, and the home issue. Keep us all posted on both situations.
