Today Jim is having surgery; surgery that we hope will tell us what has been going on in his body to cause him such distress. He first saw our Doctor almost 5 weeks ago. The first week he was treated for a bladder infection. The second week he was treated for pneumonia. Neither treatment helped him. The third week he had a needle biopsy. The fourth week was anxiously spent waiting for results. Even after being sent on to the Mayo Clinic, the results came back “inconclusive”. The next step in this journey is his surgical biopsy scheduled for today. We are requesting prayers for peace and comfort for Jim and successful exploration by the surgeon resulting in a firm diagnosis so that treatment can begin as soon as possible.
5Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;
and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5
