Hi sweet friends,
I wanted to reach out and ask for prayers tonight, tomorrow and for the coming weeks for my sister, Anna, and my family. Anna is having open heart surgery tomorrow morning in Houston which should start around 8 am and last about 8 hours. She was born with a heart defect and has had heart complications since, but things have gotten much worse over the past year or so to the point where now her heart only circulates about 30% of the blood that it is supposed to. There are a lot of pieces to the surgery that I don't fully understand (luckily we have so many gals in the health field in our group that some of you may get it better than I do!) but I know that ideally this will fix the solution at least for now, however, there is a likelihood that she may have surgeries in the future.
She'll be in the hospital for about a week. We're hoping to get out by Saturday but all of that depends on how she does once she is out of the operating room. Then recovery for the rest of the summer should be pretty painful.
Specifically I just ask that you pray for her anxiety and nerves tonight and tomorrow morning because she is really scared it all (as we all are), for the hands of her surgeons and nurses and that there are no complications, and that Anna leans on her faith during a season that is going to be really tough both physically and emotionally.
So thankful to have your support.
In him,
