Yes, life gallops along and it is hard to get these things checked as you would like - I will pray for good news when it is checked.

Alice,
Prayers, at least console yourself with the thought that because he has a twin with the problem he was forwarned and knows to act now -- even if he did wait it could still be worse.

Alice, I think Julia is right. Imagine how long Dh could have gone on with "some pain in his hip." He could have probably put up with it for years!

When I feel like I've missed something, I try to look back and ask myself
"Was I praying?"
If I can say that I was basically saying my prayers (the usual: Sunday Mass etc) and open to the Lord's guidance, then I try to see if it is part of God's Will that I *should* have missed the something.

In other words, God also speaks to us by not speaking to us, but not pushing us to do something, by not giving us the grace to do something.

Try to rest in God's hand, in His loving care of you and your family.
I will continue to pray for your family.
