Update on Lonny Parson 7/23

Lonny is the preacher from Honey Grove we've had on our prayer list for months.
His wife posts updates daily. 

Day 170: Well.... today is one of those days I feel like We got kicked in the gut every time the dust settled .... I say that because the news we got today is, the plans we had in place for Lonny’s next step isn’t an option because we’ve been in the hospital too long.... (God has a plan) Our second round of not so great news is Lonny will have to have his left leg amputated, we’ve had amazing care & our team has done everything possible to keep it & it’s just not going to do anything but cause more sickness & pain for Lonny. Honestly he is more ok with it than all of us. He says he doesn’t need legs to preach...♥️ Please pray for us to all give Lonny the love & support he needs to process this, & know that we along with Lonny are so very grateful he is ALIVE! We don’t have it twisted, we know we are super blessed! We also know this is super hard.... The surgery will probably be this Thursday.... he did say he wants a fast “fat rascal scooter” I told him no he’s getting a pirate 🏴‍☠️ peg leg 😊♥️ i love his humor ♥️ (God has a plan) And of course then there’s the fact that his blood pressure dropped to 60/23 last night & we had to call a rapid response team in. It was quite funny though because Lonny was perfectly fine & looking at me going “ let me have my speaking valve & can you adjust these pillows? “ 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️ Of course no one in the room can hear him I was just reading his lips & finally I was like look there are 20 people in this room trying to save your life can you just shut-up about the pillows😂😂 Please pray for us to rest, & rest in the Lord.... also for us to remember God has a plan..... Lonny’s life verse really does describe all of this... Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, & lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, & He shall direct your paths.
