[TEXOKIE]

UPDATE Noon CST:

I just got off the phone with Rose! She sounded very upbeat and chipper. She is, as expected, flat on her back. She says that her pain levels are much better today. They adjusted her medication so she has been able to get good rest and sleep. In fact I called just after she had a shot, and I was able to talk to her before she slipped into the ethers.

Mrs Rose and Rose's daughter are both doing well. Rose is doing well enough that Mrs Rose felt confident enough to leave the hospital for a little while to run some errands. The daughter is attending school.

QUOTE FROM ROSE:
I asked if there was anything in specific she wanted us to focus our prayer work on today, and her immediate response was "Recovery!" She also added, "I feel so wrapped in a blanket of health and healing. I feel so secure. I'm getting GOOD sleep. Thank you each and every one for your prayers. I feel them and I have the belief that they saved my life, especially in the surgery right before this one."

A PRAYER

Our Father in Heaven,

You have answered us so specifically and generously! Thank you for helping Rose with the pain she was suffering last night. Thank you for your mercy in this matter. Thank you for guiding the doctors and nurses in finding the proper balance of medication to solve the problem. Thank you for the mercy of the medication itself! We continue to pray for the reduction in pain, and the healing of the cause of it, especially the pain which has caused her to be away from us for so long.


Father, we concentrate our prayers today on her recovery process. Father, let our prayers be used for clearing the way of any and all obstacles which would seek to prevent the full and lasting recovery which is according to your Plan for her. We know that in the past, Rose has suffered from vulnerability to infections following surgeries. We pray that all wound care will be sterile and done according to proper protocols. We are grateful that she has good pain management, for that affects the immune system. We ask that anything else which affects her immune system will be handled according to thy will.

We ask for the clearing of the way for her physical recuperation. Let the nerves and muscles and blood vessels heal in such a way that she is able to have the maximum use of her limbs. We are grateful that the old scar tissue which was interfering with her nervous system in her lower back and body has been largely detached or removed, according to the report from Mrs Rose last night. We do pray for a miracle of healing in Rose's body, especially that site of old scar tissue and the nerves and blood vessels which were involved. Clear the way for the most effective physical therapy, when that time comes.

Father, again, we ask that our prayers and petitions on behalf of Rose will be multiplied so that any of your children who have similar need may also be assisted by your Grace. Rose reported that our earlier petitions for her to be swaddled in our prayers has actually come true. Please continue holding her in your arms for us. Bless all of your children in need. We ask this all to be done according to thy will and timing, in the Name of the One You Sent.

Amen

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.

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].
