Prayers for Mrs. VolTexan

#1

Post by Vol Texan »

Christmas has come, and it’s safe to assume that anyone still in the hospital REALLY needs to be there - and I guess my wife meets the criteria.

She was in the hospital for 18 days from 27 Oct to 14 Nov.

After getting out, she never got back to 100% due to residual fluid buildup in her abdominal cavity.

Fast forward to 9 Dec, and that fluid developed an infection, and she has been fighting it ever since. With several abdominal drains installed, it is still a slow process. We hope to get her out before the new year.

We welcome any and all prayers for her quick recovery.

AND!!

A friend of ours is in the same hospital, same floor, three doors down from my wife with chest drains in for pneumonia and a partial pneumothorax. A couple prayers for her are also welcomed.

I am very sorry to hear that your wife is going through this, especially on Christmas Day. I pray that both of you will find comfort knowing that God is there with y'all, and that together with her friend and collective families there will be fellowship in spite of the hospital setting.

God Bless y'all, and a heartfelt Christmas prayer for healing.

Prayers said for you, your wife and all who are struggling. My wife fell on Thursday and fractured her hip. Had surgery on Friday and was able to come home yesterday (Christmas eve). We gave thanks for that little blessing.

There's never a good time to be in the hospital, but Christmastime is the roughest. Prayers uplifted for Mrs. Vol Texan and friend, and for Mrs. Tex1961.

Thank you all, and today was a great day for our family. With all the challenges this year, we’ve still been quite blessed with work, so we were able to provide our daughter with a great Christmas surprise.

Also, the docs and nurses continued to work their magic and my wife had a mostly good day herself.

Hope you all had as Merry of a Christmas as we had, and thank you for all the positive prayers!

Vol Texas that is great to hear! Prayers continued for your dear wife. I pray she gets to go home where she can recover comfortably. I don’t know a lot about having a sick spouse however my sweet wife does. She has been over worked since 2004. Be sure to take care of yourself and get some rest. You’re no good if you run yourself down. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. ;-)
