Adhesions are horrible. I spent 9 hrs in surgery while they removed all my intestines, cut them apart to remove the adhesions, and wrapped my intestines in Seprafilm to block adhesions from forming and then put me back together again.

I woke up during surgery with my arms still strapped to the boards and observed the panic of the surgery team.

I understand why Bruce did what he did and assure you that he is in a better place now. The big difference is that I had the opportunity to die, go to Heaven and return to my physical body. Heaven is so blissful, so peaceful, so wonderful that I did not want to return to my body. The thought of doing the same as Bruce in order to return to Heaven has crossed my mind many times as I experienced the despair of being back in my body.

Prayers for Bruce at this time are very helpful. When you are out of your body and someone says a prayer for you, you not only feel it but know who is saying the prayer.

That’s quite a story. Blessings to you too, and I hope the Lord’s grace is with you to comfort you daily.

(we all need a little grace from time to time when life is tough & painful. It’s said what the article’s subject had to go through)

Remarkable experience. Thank you.

The problem with unrelenting pain is first, the pain, and secondly the way it distracts one from life. To focus on breathing, on music, reading, food, becomes seemingly impossible.

My heart ..and prayers for Bruce, I cannot condemn this man. May his soul be at rest in God’s love..

Wow, that is amazing. Amazing. I take it you asked someone about it after you were well, and were able to tell them how they prayed or that they prayed? Thanks for sharing that.
