I'll put Nana on our Parish Prayer list for a successful surgery and rehab.

I've got a prayer request for y'all, too. My cousin's wife died this morning after a LONG battle with cancer. Seems like she's been fighting it for over 5 years. Please keep her husband and kids in your prayers. All their kids are grown and gone from home, so Harvey will be on his own. He's a cool guy; was a one star general in the 3rd Armored Division during Desert Storm , then became some high muckety-muck in the Army in Germany a few years after that. When x42 and Her Heinous came to Berlin in the mid 90's, Harvey and Donna had to squire them around. They HATED it!

Also, if you'd keep in your prayers my big brother, Mike, who's having heart bypass surgery sometime this week. He was supposed to have it tomorrow, but his blood was too thin, so they delayed it to later in the week. I know they have stuff to thin the blood, cause I've been on it, but what do they have that can thicken it?

Broccoli. Seriesly Nana told us last week she couldn't eat broccoli 'cause it "thins your blood." What she was told was that she shouldn't eat it when taking the coumadin because it counteracts the coumadin (blood thinner).

Your cousin and your brother are in my prayers.

I imagine they they can take your brother off any thinning agents, if he was on any and his blood with thicken back up naturally. If he was even just taking an aspirin a day (or even just taking some for aches and pains recently) it can thin his blood down.

Prayers for him and your cousin...
