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

[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!!"

"Tell Rose to be well, and that we're all pulling for her and anxiously waiting for her to get better -- but to do what she's supposed to do and not to overdo...;)"

YROT, you've got a lot of "Dr. Mom" and "Dr. Dad" prayer warriors. From a 'been there - done that' x3 veteran, baby yourself, let others baby you and get well.

[TEXOKIE]

Thanks for the update.

Just tell Rose that her doctor is a god and to do everything he tells her to do. Meanwhile, GOD will take care of the recovery. Prayers wafting up.

[Chapita]

Tell Suzie that I am keeping up with her and Sneakypete is doing pretty well [but the aggravation of dealing with a wound when you live alone is not fun; but he handles pain better than I].

[glock rocks]

Amen and amen.

great news.

[mewzilla]

Just checking in on Rose and sneakypete. You're both in our thoughts and prayers. And thanks for the updates, Tex.
