My cousin, Tim Mecum, went into the hospital yesterday for emergency surgery for a clot in his lung. He has had some additional complication and things are touch and go right now. Tim is a few years younger than I. He lives in an assisted living apartment provided to him by the county in Oregon where he lives. Due to his abilities and lack thereof, we have all been amazed and thankful that Tim has been able to live on his own with a little help from the count and his friends. It was our great joy to be able to take him to Gospel meetings on Sunday afternoons when we lived in Albany. The reality is that Tim is the one we miss the most from when we lived there. Right now Tim needs our prayers.
