The First News - August 8th

Hey friends and family,

Mark broke his leg (right tibia) tonight while climbing in Rocky Mt
Natl Park with his cousin. I am asking that if any of you believe in
prayer, send 'em on over to Mark at Loveland Colorado Hospital. He's
in emergency surgery right now. I've talked to the ER doc who was
kindly and optimistic and marveled at Mark's health and strength but
also said that the break is bad and that tonight will be only the
first of a few surgeries.

No need to email me back---I'm probably flying to CO tomorrow and
won't check email for the next week or so. But do send Mark (and me)
all of your optimism and vision and resiliency and healing.
