Tue 3/22 Prayer Need

Hi faithful followers!

One specific prayer request for today... the basic reason for being here today is because of my bout with pancreatitis one month ago. The doctors want to be sure my pancreas will be able to handle the anesthesia, apparently it can do quite a number on the pancreas. So I have a lab, chest x-ray and visits with two doctors. Specifically, my lipase and amylase levels need to be normal. Please pray for that today if you could. If the numbers are not just right, the surgery could be called off on Thursday.

Some of you have asked what our schedule looks like, so here it is for today:

And a few praises: feeling more peace & confidence, given the opportunity to be used by God to be a light to others to reflect his love & glory, and praises for MD Anderson & being right across the street from the hospital.

Thanks all, and blessings to you.
