Prayer Request

I know I can always count on you guys when am experiencing a time of trouble and need help from a Higher Power. My grandmother is scheduled for open heart surgery today. She spent the weekend at Baptist and she is experienced a little anxiety. As some of you may recall my grandfather had bypass surgery earlier this year. This has been very taxing on my family especially my mom and her siblings. I understand and am happy she is having surgery as it will give her a better life to enjoy her favorite things. I would greatly appreciate it if you could include my grandmother in your prayers. Her name is Wilma. They took her back before I could make it there this morning. I am upset I did not get to see her prior to going back to prepare for surgery. Her surgery is scheduled for 12:30 so this should be a relatively long day today.

It is so nice to know I have a place I can bring my burdens.

Much Love

I'll keep you guys in my prayers!!!

Paul, As you should expect - yes, most definetly - prayers being said now.   Please let us know how she is doing.

Beth, 

I'm in the collecting information for ins. approval stage prior to gastric bypass and Dr. Dyer will be my surgeon.  It seems as though you have been very successful with losing weight following this surgery and are a blessing to others who are going through various stages of the endeavor now.

I'm back in TN after having been gone for 20 years and everything has changed so much, I feel like I am in a different world than when I left TN.  I wondered what your thoughts were about your physician, care during surgery, follow-up after surgery, etc.  I had planned to have the surgery in Atlanta, but the grant funding for my position ended, and I decided to head back home to TN.    I'm as anxious about the surgery as I am looking forward to just gettining it done and reaping the health benefits of shedding so much of this weight.

Thanks,

My grandmother ended up having triple bypass today. Surgery was a success and she is recovering. They will keep her in recovery overnight which I understand is typical. I want to thank you all for your calls and messages today. They meant a lot to me. It is nice to know we have a God who listens to our prayers.

Paul,

I hope your grandmother continues to do well.  I believe I inadvertently posted a question right in the midst of your request for prayer for her.  While I managed to goof on the post, I did say a prayer for your grandmother and your family.  We do indeed have a God who listens to prayers.

Best wishes,
