Prayer Thread for Yellow Rose of Texas - THIS IS NO DRILL!!

Posted on 02/13/2003 11:28:49 AM PST by TEXOKIE

Long time Freeper Yellow Rose of Texas has recently had an attempted back surgery during which her aorta, which was encased in scar tissue, was nicked and had to be repaired. In a previous prayer thread, many many folks have graciously offered their prayers and comments of encouragement to her. I spoke with Yellow Rose of Texas yesterday and here is the latest!

Her recovery to the previous surgical attempt to do the back surgery has been phenominal. She saw her doctor two days ago on Tuesday. She is doing well enough that he has scheduled her back surgery in a week for TUESDAY FEBRUARY 18, 2003. She had initially been told it would be a few weeks longer to recover, but she has amazed her doctor and he judges that she is ready for the next procedure.

Rose has asked me to thank you each and every one so very much for all your thoughts and prayers on her behalf. She asked me to quote her,

"Thank you so much. I feel each and every one of your prayers. The Good Lord is with me and my family. I dont feel scared at all. This surgery will stabilize my back and it'll all be fine. I feel so protected. I am hoping that this surgery will enable me to once more return to the freeping that I enjoy. It has seemed in my life that if something unusual can happen, it will happen to me. Please pray that the surgery be routine. NO SURPRISES!! LOL!!"

"Candle Of Hope"

Out of the darkness a candle will glow regardless of storm clouds or harsh winds that blow, When searching for answers this much I know adversity is given to help us to grow.

Strength is a gift given when born but love is the key to keeping us strong, Hope is the answer when things go wrong and faith will abide when all hope is gone

If you question why life is unfair or why many don't care, Make a difference, accept a dare reach out to others, begin to share. This is the moment, this is the time reflect on your life, you'll see a sign, Light one candle, let it shine bring hope to the world and all mankind.

Hi Rose . . . Think positive . . . Think positive . . . and when you get to the point where you are attending Physical Therapy sessions, be on guard that they don't stick you with a therapist guy named "TONY" . . . yes Tony . . . sounds OK on the surface, eh? But that dirty low down guy is the reason that a "therapist" is actually The Rapist !!!

Stay away from therapists with a Lower Level name like Tony . . . Toe Knee . . . Lower Level Toe Knee . . . get it?

Instead, get better faster by insisting they let you work with a Physical Therapist that has a Higher Level name . . . like Thumb Wrist !!! ;-))

GET WELL SOON, ROSE . . . WE MISS YOU !!!

A prayer BUMP for our Rose.

Last night as I looked out the window, I offered up a prayer for Yellow Rose, asking that all will go well and that her recovery would be without incident and that she would soon be back in charge of her own self. I hope that at this moment she is beginning that recovery and can amaze her doctors as much as she did after her 'nick' experience.

Positive vibes being sent.
