Yimy's back from the hospital and doing fine. He's pretty sore, but he's being a good sport about it. Plus I bought him some chicken (he couldn't eat today before the surgery)...so that helped. He'll be off the soccer field for a few weeks I think. But other than that, he should be as good as new in no time. The doctor said his nose was nice and straight now. I told him she said it would be better than it was before. =)
A couple of pictures of the patient...
All in all, this little mishap is going to cost us in the area of about $600 US. That's about $600 more than our budget this month. =) If you feel like you might want to contribute a bit to fixing Yimy's nose, just drop me a note at ken.switzer@iteams.org and I'll let you know how you can do that. We'd appreciate the help. Thanks!
By the way, last night went well. I'll explain more in the future, but basically I'm taking one of the guys through the "Steps to Freedom", a seven step dealio to help him understand and make a break from things in his past. This is a fellow who is dealing with significant spiritual issues, so I wasn't quite sure how it was going to go. It was fine, but we're not finished yet. Usually it takes about three hours or so to get through the seven steps. We made it through the first one in three and a half hours. =) So please continue to pray for him and for me. It ended up going fairly late, and I'm feeling it today.
Thanks for praying everyone. I'll keep you updated on how Yimy is, and other random happenings. It rained today! That was a good thing. A nice break from the heat...

Steps to Freedom are amazing but the process can be draining so will pray...it is freeing though!
$600 for a nice nose...wow. You need a paypal account or something so people can just come to your blog and click and donate! You guys have been on my mind a lot lately! Take care.
