Larry will be having surgery on December 5th to have his left torn rotator cuff repaired. Larry fell after listening to John Chidester speak up at the 2005 Reunion on Mackinac Island and has been trying meds like steroids, and also some physical therapy. We finally got an MRI done and it is a pretty bad tear. The ortho doc told Larry that only about 10% of the rotator cuff tears are like his and they are more difficult to repair. They can't do it arthroscopically so they have to open his shoulder up. It will be a very long rehab and we would like prayers that it is successful. Larry has been through quite alot laterly and your prayers would mean the world to both of us. Thanks for your concern and caring.
Larry and Kat Waterson

...Larry fell after listening to John Chidester speak up at the 2005 Reunion on Mackinac Island... Was he laughing from something funny I said? So you're going in now to get your pants cuffed? I always wear mine with NO cuff. Take care, Larry. You'll be in my prayers.

Watch the funny stuff, John. You may be causing damage of which you are not even aware!
Good luck, Larry!

I hope all goes well Larry. I have had the open the shoulder rotator cuff and decompression surgery and actually it is much easier than the under the shoulder and across the chest surgery I had to remove the 1st rib. At least they don't cut through muscle and it is much less painful and not as much down time. I think I only had to miss 4 weeks of work. You can move your shoulder and arm soon after surgery. It was considered outpatient surgery, but I ended up spending the night because I had trouble coming out of the anesthesia - just as well, during the overnight stay they gave me pain shots all night long.

Larry and Kat,
You will most certainly be in our prayers.
We hope we see you next weekend in MC for the Christmas party before his surgery.
Take care,
Mary and Jeff
