This may be a little lengthy because there are three different people that need prayers.
Two of my "kids" (went to my school with my daughters) Lee and Kelly and Kelly's daughter, Ciara.
Lee -47ish, is having heart ablation catheter surgery tomorrow (Friday) morning. He has been suffering from afib for almost 2 years and the medication is not helping him. The doctors decided that the ablation surgery would be the best solution for him. I won't go into the details of what the surgery involves. If you don't know ask me and I'll be glad to tell you. It is a common and relatively successful surgery that takes anywhere from 3 to 4 hours. He is the provider for the family but probably will not be able to work for a couple of months however his employer did provide him with total salary temporary disability. Hallelujah for that.
Kelly (same age-ish) was at my granddaughter's cookout this past Saturday and she told me that she had just had her gallbladder out and that she wasn't feeling very well. Well, her boyfriend took her to the ER Monday night and she ended up at our big hospital at UNC in Chapel Hill. Something must not have gone right with that surgery and she developed complications where her bile ducts in her liver backed up and inflamed. That is one of the risks of gallbladder surgery if the surgeons accidentally don't do it exactly right. In any case she had one surgery yesterday and then today things were looking even worse so they had to go back in there and do an emergency surgery. She just got back in her hospital room about an hour ago. My daughter Cynthia and I will be heading up tomorrow morning around 10:00. It's about an hour drive.
Kelly's daughter, Ciara, was in a motorcycle accident Monday. She ended up at the same hospital in ICU. She fractured her spine, broke her arm in several places and her wrist, broke her ankle and lacerated her liver. There might have been some broken ribs too. I don't have all those details.
So my dear Brothers and Sisters if you would please remember all of my children in your prayers. Each of these people are part of my extended family and I have always looked after them.
Thank you!
