Prayer Thread for Lurking Freeper Texana (TEXOKIE's Sister)

[TEXOKIE]

Thanks for bumping by, amom!

[jwalsh07]

Prayers for you sis. My wife had the same surgery, she is happy as a lark about it.

[TexasCowboy]

Yeah, there is a freeper named TexanaRed whose home was washed away about a year ago in the flood that hit Kerrville and Ingram.
Many of us responded to her need with prayers and small money donations.
I think she took the "Red" part from her red hair, but I'm not sure.
The Texana part, of course, probably came from Lake Texana.

May God guide the surgeon's hands and heal with the power of His spirit.

No problem. Keep us informed.

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for your prayers, jwalsh. We appreciate hearing about successful outcomes for this procedure! I'm so happy that your wife is pleased with her result!

[TEXOKIE]

Oh bless her heart! I had not realized that! Thank you for letting us know about her. Hope things are going well with her now.

Amen to your prayer on Texana's behalf.

[fatima]

Prayered with you for your sis.

[TEXOKIE]

I've just received an email from my sister and she wants me to let all of you know the following:

"Thank you so much -- I'm in tears right now. I just read the outpouring of love and prayers from people who do not even know me. It's truly amazing. Please thank them for me and let them know that their prayers were received into my heart, and I feel better already! "

Please add to hers my own thanks.

Thanks for the update, Texokie.

TEXOKIE, I've traveled all over this world, and I'm here to tell you that you won't find a better group of people on this planet than right here on FR.

[Dubya]

Eve and me are praying from our hearts. God bless you both.

[Dubya]

And thanks for the update.

[TEXOKIE]

You are welcome, SAM. Thank you for caring.

[TEXOKIE]

I think I gotta agree with you, TexasCowboy. There are some truly magnificent hearts here, arent there?

[cowgirlcutie]

Thank you for the update.

[TEXOKIE]

ROFL!!! Just saw your tag line!! *Giggle*

[tiki]

You are welcome and I'll add another prayer.

Let me add another success story to yours, jwalsh07, to reassure TEXOKIE and his sister.

Ultrasound is used to map the precise size and shape of the eye so the gunk can be removed and a made-exactly-to-fit piece inserted to replace it!
Amazing technology.

Mine were done in January and February of 1999; outpatient surgery, under an IV sedative. It was so weird to be awake and aware of what was happening - yet totally detached, even knowing what the surgeon was doing! Never felt a thing, and went home after the sedative wore off.

Granted, hers is in a more difficult spot and she'll be watched in the hospital afterward, but a good outcome is likely.
For that, indeed, I add my prayers for an easy, uneventful surgery and rapid recovery.

In my case, vision was actually improved, and the need for glasses eliminated except for reading smaller print - the "Over 40" malady that strikes most..:))

Prayers for your sister, tomorrow. It will be a good day, it's also my grandson's birthday.

Oh you're only saying that because it's true. :-)
