Update on NanaGrandma

OK had our consultation with the Mayo team of doctors. I won't describe what they are going to do but I will be bald in front of my head,Operation is maybe up to 8 hours, I was telling my kids I will look like Uncle Fester from the Adams family, LOL of course I am exagerating, more like Stevie Wonder. I guess I'll have to buy fancy scarves to wrap around my head or better yet get a cowboy hat like Kenney Chesney. Well like I always say where there is a will there is a way. There will be two teams of doctors and they sure talk like they know what they are doing. And now it is all in GOD'S HANDS, ALWAYS WAS.

Thank You all for thinking of me and your dearly loved prayers.

God Bless

Luvya

    Hi Sylvia! Thank you for the update! Is the surgery still set for the 12th? What time? We want to be praying for you at that time. We love your positive attitude! YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION! We're going to pray for you RIGHT NOW...

    "Dear Heavenly Father, Please continue to give Sylvia your strength... and your peace that passes all understanding. Lord, wrap your loving arms around Sylvia during this time. Guide the doctors as they perform the surgery. Lord, you are a God of miracles. Allow Sylvia to crawl up into your lap and rest in your presence, Dear Father. In your precious name we pray."

    We're praying for you, Sylvia. Love, Kirk and Carol

    Sylvia,

    As everyone here has said already, My prayers will be with you more than ever over the next few days. Keep us posted on how you are doing. We are all thinking of you! Bald is beautiful! The scarves or some wonderful hats do wonders...my favorite is my cowboy hat. It matches the one Chris has on in the pic on my photobucket page. I got it last summer. Hats or scarves with bling....that is what I see you in.

    Sylvia, I read every post above and I DITO them all. I am always amazed at how modern medicine has procedures in place when we need them.

    How Blessed we are to be in a civilized country where medical care is available.

    How Blessed we are to have the powers of communication technology to answer our medical questions and enlighten our lives with knowledge.

    How Blessed we are to have modern transportation to seek out specific care in different areas of the country.

    How Blessed we are to "find room at the Inn" for our shelter in a strange land.

    How Blessed we are to be nourished by warm food and held by even warmer arms of those who love us.

    How Blessed we are to have our children grow up and attend universities to learn how to heal others.

    I thank God for these and many other blessings that He has provided for us in this country. Sylvia know this, He put all of these things into place for this time at this moment for you. Susie
