In surgery now, please pray

Brian went to the hospital this morning so that he could be with Aunt Ruthie when the doctors rounded. They were able to speak with the attending surgeon that operated on Uncle Louie last night. He again reminded them that Louie is VERY sick. He told them that Uncle Louie needed to go back to surgery so that they could continue to assess the intestines and take out some of the tissue that is infected.

Now that he is in surgery, if you could specifically pray that God guides the doctors hands while operating and allows them to remove all of the infected tissue and skin. Getting rid of all damaged parts of his body is a vital part of Louie's recovery because any of the damaged tissue is prone to spread infection. Along with the surgery right now the risk of infection is one of his biggest battles. If you could also pray that Uncle Louie stays strong during the surgery.

We continue to be so thankful for all of your prayers.
