Prayer Request for GalvestonBeachComber
Self | 9/3/02 | Budge

Posted on 09/03/2002 7:03:35 AM PDT by Budge

We recieved a phone call late last night that GalvestonBeachComber had been taken to the emergency room at John Sealy in Galveston.

The two of us had planned a sight-seeing trip out west and had actually left Pine Bluff, Arkansas last Thursday, Aug. 29th. We made it as far as Bentonville, Arkansas where it was discovered he was suffering from congestive heart failure. We headed back to Pine Bluff where GBC picked up his car and continued home to see his doctor in Galveston as suggested by the doctor in Bentonville.

I had planned to drive to Galveston today (Tuesday) and will leave shortly.

We all know well the power of prayer, especially when FReepers start sending them!

Please say prayers for GalvestonBeachComber.

Good afternoon everyone,
I just talked to Budge, and he says that GBC is doing better. Praise God!!!

Ray wants Budge to hold off coming to Galveston until he is out of the hospital. I'm not sure when that will be, but we will keep everyone informed.

The prayers are working, so lets keep them coming, and a heartfelt thanks to everyone for their support!!!

God Bless

Thanks for the ping, Budge. As one who has recently benefitted from the power of Freeper prayer, I shall certainly put GalvestonBeachComber at the top of my prayer list. It's great that you are able to go be with him.

What a gratifying response. Thanks, Budge, and each one of you, for the kindness.

My problem was cellulitis with extreme leg swelling as a result of congestive heart failure. I was fortunate enough to get attention before the inflammation affected the blood stream.

Thanks again one anda all. GBC

You all should know that GBC was released this morning and is home, doing much better.

No doubt in my mind that Prayer Threads work!

See GBC's post # 105.

Thank you all and God Bless!

Welcome news- in my experience you really don't start healing until you leave the hospital... too much ruckus.
