Prayer & Praise

Our friend from SC stopped by today. His son had surgery for a brain tumor. They removed and said he will have to undergo Radiation in about 6 weeks. Now today they shared that some of the tumor still remains. We pray for healing, comfort and strength for him and the family. Our friend will be heading back to SC this weekend and we pray for safe travels.

Hello Everyone! Our grandson got the gold star of the day!!! His surgery went great today, and though in the past I have not said nice things about this hospital, I will tell you that he absolutely had the best care ever! They were wonderful. The hospital tour was a great thing to do, because his fear and stress levels were at zero as he went in on surgery day looking for his favorite nurse. He obviously had hundreds of people praying for him because he not only talked to all the nurses on the way into the OR, he had a great conversation with the anesthesiologist. And they said he went out very quietly. He wasn’t afraid of the mask because he had seen it on the tour. They took out extremely enlarged adenoids and tonsils…the tubes are in the ears and we now know he is allergic to cats and mold and dust mites. He came out of anesthesia so easily. Two other little boys a couple of years younger than him had the same procedure done and they both came out screaming and crying, didn’t drink for a long time and wouldn’t touch the Popsicles…I felt so bad for them and was prepared for the same from him. When they rolled him out he didn’t talk much at first but was glad to drink, had a Popsicle and watched Dora for about an hour in recovery. He sure wasn’t hopping up and down, very lethargic but very cooperative with the nurses…said thank you when they brought him things…even when he got rid of a lot of mucus, he would give a thumbs up when they asked if he was OK, or yes please when they asked if he wanted his face wiped…what a trooper. I know it was the prayers that made the difference! I can’t imagine going into battle without them!!!!!

I would like to request prayers for our daughter, and son-in-law. He pastors a church and they are providing a temporary home at the parsonage for two teenage youth who have to be removed from their home situation.  Pray for this displaced family and that the situation will be resolved.  The family belongs to his church and the young people are members of the youth group there.  May God cover this situation with love and compassion.  Nothing is ever too much for our Lord!
