Writer friend needs prayer - 04/13/05 06:37 PM
A writer friend needs prayer. She fell at a writer's meeting and broke her shoulder. She had complications and wound up having a shoulder replacement. She came home and was getting therapy, but kept having pain in her abdomen and wound up back in the hospital for an emergency surgery to remove stones and gangrenous gall bladder. Recovery was slowed by a continued drainage and she is having surgery today to correct an infectious cyst and fistula.
She is 60 and lives alone.
Please remember her in your prayers.

Smile, she has mine. Does your friend have a computer? Invite her here, we'd love to meet her. By the way, how about an update on your situation.

Thank you all for your prayers. She came through the surgery yesterday better than she has before. Still hospitalized, but hopefully out soon.
As to me, the surgery has helped the orthopedic problems with my ankle which was completely re-constructed. The fibula was 3 times the normal size and he chiseled it down then used the pieces to fill in another bone that had worn down and fused a painful joint, but the nerve thing is still there and possibly worse. I'm having therapy 4 times a week and seeing some improvement.
Thanks for your prayers and concern.
Don't forget my friend.
