Pre-op Plans

Many thanks to everyone for your faithful prayers, hugs and statements of support for Terrie. She says she has never felt so loved and appreciated by so many. She is overwhelmed with hugs & comments at church every time we go. Last Wednesday night, 14 of our shepherds met with us after church and prayed over her. It was a wonderfully comforting time. This Wednesday, July 1, we have two important appointments: Terrie goes to the HEB hospital at 12:45 PM for her pre-op work and instructions and then we meet with the surgeon at 4:30 that same afternoon. We have lots of questions about the procedure, the recovery and especially, about the anesthesia and pain medications. Please pray that we not only get good information, but that we also come away with peace about the ability to keep Terrie from getting nauseated after the surgery. So far God is wonderfully guiding us through this side of the procedure. We are getting all positive confirmations of both the surgeon and the cardiologist we are using. We pray now that God will be near and powerful during the surgery and throughout her recovery. And again, we are both humbled by your attention in this whole ordeal! What a great family we have in the Lord!
