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!!"

Thank you for your prayers, mommadooo3. I'm glad that I was able to be responsive to the 'wondering.' I agree that the Lord is using our Rosie as education for her docs, and also on other levels as well.

I just received a phone call Rosie. She has some info she asked me to let folks know about.
MINOR SETBACK:
Rose is looking forward to freeping once more, but recovery from her recent spinal surgery has been delayed a bit. She has fractured 3 ribs by lifting a large carton of milk out of the fridge. She was within doc's guidelines and wasnt trying to lift something heavier than the required limits, but she said her mistake was in holding it out away from her body.
The recovery delay is because she is now taking an OTC (over the counter) pain med which slows healing but is necessary for inflammation in the rib cage area. The silver lining in this cloud is that her arthritis has been reduced by the OTC meds and she is able to work on her crafts a bit. She stated several times that she is fine and the setback and delay is minor.
She sends her greetings to one and all here.
REQUEST FOR FLEA COLLARS FROM THE TROOPS IN IRAQ!!:
Rose particularly wanted me to spread the word that a friend of hers has a son serving in Iraq. He has asked his mom to send him some dog and cat flea collars. There are sand fleas and the collars help a lot in warding off the little buggers. Rose asked me to let folks interested in preparing care packages for troops on the Iraqi front that this is a HIGH REQUEST item!!
Our Father in Heaven,
We ask that you will intercede in the health and healing of our friend YellowRoseofTexas. Please heal those 3 fractured ribs rapidly. Please protect her from any and all other setbacks and delays from healing according to thy will. We ask you Father to keep her spirits upbeat in the face of the setback. Comfort her and keep her mindful that you are always with her. We are grateful that you have cared for her and brought her this far. We do extend to her our love and prayers and ask that you will cover her with them.
We also pray that you will intercede and shield our troops through the use of flea collars or miraculously from the torment and distraction of sand fleas.
This which we call forth for Rosie, we call forth for any who have similar need.
Amen

She has fractured 3 ribs by lifting a large carton of milk out of the fridge.Rosie! She must be very frail, bless her dear heart. But she's thinking of others as always. God bless and heal her completely.
