Michel's cousin is having a test today to determine if he needs open heart surgery to fix a valve in his heart. Your prayers that the results of the test are good and he doesn't need surgery would be greatly appreciated.

Kevin is a little older than me... so somewhere around 300 or so. Smile Actually he's a little over 50.

The results were that he needs more tests before they know what to do. So please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Kevin never married. Michel and Kevin have always been very close so she considers him more a brother than a cousin.

They did the surgery and everything went well. He'll be coming to stay with us for a little while after they let him out of the hospital.
