URGENT: PLEASE PRAY for a friend who has "flesh-eating bacteria" disease [Update #99]

Posted on 05/17/2014 1:35:40 PM PDT by pax_et_bonum

A dear friend of ours has been hospitalized and had emergency surgery this morning.

The doctors removed the muscle of his right forearm and most of the tissue around his left hip. They say that he will not be able to use the fingers of his right hand and that he will not walk again.

They say the disease will remain in his system for up to six weeks, so his ordeal is far from over.

Please pray for him. He is a very, very good and kind man.

Our friend is a master electrician, and he is a young man.

Good to delay. You never know what’s in the fluid.

UPDATE

Following his surgery on Tuesday, we think things are looking good for Jesse, but we still don’t have a full report. We’re still waiting for a friend to talk with a doctor.

Here’s the text from the friend who saw him after his surgery on Tuesday:

“Bandage covers from backbone to side to neck to waist. Dr promised him a nice scar!

He was grateful for lubys food last night. He is tired of Hosp food. Sugar under 120!

He is feeling much better. More alert. He will be getting restless soon! Good signs!”

Until she is able to locate one of Jesse’s doctors we won’t know details, such as whether or not the bacteria related to Tuesday’s surgery was the flesh-eating type.

As for now, Jesse is feeling much better and we are optimistic and hopeful.

As soon as we hear from a doctor, I’ll update again.

Thank you all again for your continued prayers!

Much, much love to all of you! Now, back to packing!

Prayers continue for Jesse...

One day at a time, sweet Jesus
That’s all I’m asking from you
Give me the strength to do everything that I have to do
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Help me today
Show me the way
One day at a time.
