Urgent Prayer Request
By Jenny | January 28, 2007
Last night Dad had another Code Blue where he stopped breathing and passed out. Thankfully, the doctors finally were able to diagnose his symptoms. His lymphoma vessels are leaking and causing fluid build up. They admitted him to ICU last night and reinserted the tube to drain his stomach. He is now on oxygen and IVs, and they are starting him on a series of shots that are intended to patch the leaks. The doctor told Mom that this series of shots takes care of the leaks in 2/3 of the patients, but 1/3 of patients have to go back in for surgery to repair the leaking vessels. Please lift up my dad - that he would gain strength, get some much-needed rest, and that the shots would repair the leaking vessels. Mom has held up so well and been so strong, but she is worn out and in need of refreshing. Please also pray that Leslie and Megan and I would have a peace as we are all away from Mom and Dad. Thank you again for your prayers. We appreciate them more than you know.
