Fellow FReepers, please join me in prayer for a co-worker and friend's Father (Kurt) who slipped on the ice yeaterday and broke his hip. He goes in for surgery this morning. Thank you in advance for your prayers for his healing and for the family.
Please post your replies to Smokin' Joe
Please know that I am praying. May God provide protection, healing and comfort as needed.
Blessings,
trussell
If you want on/off my prayer ping list, please let me know. All requests happily honored.
Prayers sent for your friend.
Prayers in Jesus’ Name for a smooth recovery and that all will go well. Recovery from hip fracture and/or sugery is not usually a short or easy road and I pray for patience for him and for his caretakers. I’ve seen very successful recovery in two people close to me, so it’s all worth it in the end! :)
Thank you!
Prayers sent.
Thank You!
On it.

To follow up -
Prayers for any kind of surgery these days.
I knew two folks who died as a result of infection after “routine” surgery.
Thank you! (Yes, infection has become a definite risk.)
Prayers lifted!
Prayers sent to the merciful Healer.
Prayers lifted.
Thank you for the prayers, he should be entering surgery soon.
Prayers up! I know it’s so painful when it first happens...but the transition/recovery seems to be such a relief. (after watching great grandparent and grandparent suffer through one)
Thanks! I’ll give an update as soon as I find out more.
Prayers for Kurt. God bless him to have a successful surgery and recovery to good health.
Thanks, LucyJo!
May our Heavenly Father bless you all abundantly.
The last information I received is that the surgery was on hold, waiting for parts (the surgeon did not like the particular joint he was supplied, and ordered something more substantial--for a man old enough to be my father, he is a very active fellow.)
I will update the thread when I find out more.
Your prayers are a blessing to Kurt and his son, who thanks you all.
(((Hugs)))We prayed on the air today:)
Sounds like he has a good surgeon! Prayers continue.
