PRAYER REQUEST FOR MRS. DON-O
Little House on Unaka | May 5, 2008 | don-o

Posted on 05/05/2008 2:38:07 PM PDT by don-o

My wife Mrs. Don-o is having gastric bypass surgery on Thursday, May 8. If all goes well, she should be discharged on Saturday.

She is very confident in the surgeon, who has done over 1800 of these operations (four hour procedure). She is doing all the research possible on her own and expects do fabulously.

The hope is for almost instant relief from diabetes and three or four related co-morbidities. The major post-op risk, statistically, is pulmonary embolism. In her case, this risk is mitigated by the fact that she's been walking and exercising a whole lot, but exacerbated by the fact that she has a presently incurable and progressive form of COPD (rheumatoid-related bronchiolitis.)

She says if y'all would pray for her she'll breathe a lot easier (!) Thanks, everybody.

Prayers up.

A grumpy gentleman at work got a Gbypass a few months ago. He has lost A LOT of weight, and is feeling better than he has felt in years. Which is making him no so grumpy!

May the Lord Our Father rain healing upon you. May his grace renew your body in the ways no human hands can.
May your procedure be swift, successful and without great or difficult recuperation.
May your face shine in the day’s sun, here, renewed and healthy when all this been done.
May you enjoy many, many days with happiness you have yet ever known.
And May Mother Mary be ever at your side.
Amen.

A PRAYER BEFORE SURGERY

O Jesus Christ, Messiah and Lord, 
grant me joyful acceptance of the surgery 
which awaits me, 
and let this be the relief and cure which I seek. 
Make skilled the work of the surgeon 
and that of his team 
for it is unto their knowledge and skill 
that I give myself for healing. 
I pray You, O Lord, 
that this procedure will be without complication, 
and that my recovery will be speedy and complete.
