KASSI

Kassi is such a strong girl. This last year has been a real struggle for her. In January 2007 she had a hip replacement on her right hip. In September 2007 her artifical hip joint had to be taken out due to infection. They placed a spacer in the hip until the infection was gone. Shortly after that her femur broke due to a crack that occurred during surgery, after being totally down for 8 weeks to heal the femur she was able to return to work in November!

Everything was going really good and we were looking forward to having surgery again in April to fix the left hip. WELL last Sunday while at work her femur on the right side broke again (due to the fact that she has no hip joint supporting the femur on that side). She is totally down again! She is scheduled to have surgery on April 28th, the doctor will do her right hip again he will take out the spacer and put in a new joint and a steel reinforcement rod to support the femur.

She is doing alright we are trying to get her pain under control. We just ask everyone to keep her in their prayers. Kassi is such a strong young woman and she has gone through so much and never complains. We love her so much and so grateful that she is our daughter.
