His dad's 75 and just retired this year, so...

Anyway, we had the opportunity to potentially take over that practice.

However, our family was not exactly fruitful spiritually in that town, and financially we were doing okay, but the Lord was calling us to do something that didn't really make sense, really, to anybody else, if that makes sense.

um it kind of almost looked like to a lot of people were missing out on an easy opportunity to take over an already established uh business so you didn't take over you start this new one that's right okay and that's going well it's going well um so what's your question well so essentially um we're only able to be open here a couple days a week until we get more patients

in the door.

And right now he's working for an eye doctor three and a half days a week in a different town just to make ends meet.

You know, we've got to keep the mortgage paid each month at our house and keep the lights on.

Uh, so Fridays and Saturdays, um, our, our grandparents have been a saving grace for us.

We all, they all alternate helping out with the kids.

So yeah, I work full time with my husband on Fridays and Saturdays, um, to get everybody in and out the door, uh, with the patients.

Well, so that was kind of our question.

We're not paying ourselves anything yet.

And so that, that's kind of where... How are you paying your bills?

Right.

So...

Yeah, so three and a half days a week.

He has the opportunity to make commission with his other eye doctors, so he's basically still making a five-day salary.

It's trying on him.

He sees about triple the amount of patients that he normally would.

Sure.
