Roger Langel has been a close friend for some years now. Together with his wife Ursula, they lead the "Rüdli" in Einigen at the Lake of Thun - a place where the membrane between Heaven and Earth is unusually thin. Two days ago, he unexplicably fell down a 3 meter wall, full on his face. Besides breaking both hand ankles, his face was totally smashed. Today, a team of 10 specialists is going to operate on him for an expected 10-hr-operation. All the bones of his face and part of his skull will have to be removed and partly replaced by steel elements. Most probably, he will never again look this way. We love him, his wife and family and pray for wisdom for the doctors and success in that extremely difficult operation today.
