Prayer Request Update - 9/6 - 8:12pm

Faith Williams' sister-in-law posted this message tonight:  "Faith has had a better day today.  Thank You Jesus! Only issue today was her blood pressure going too low. They got it regulated this afternoon. She hasn't become anxious today. Dr Fay said her lung X-ray looks better today, another Thank You Jesus. We do not have DNA results yet, that will show if the Donor cells have moved in and moved the diseased cells out.:

Prayer Requests - 9/6 - 7:22pm

My friend, Jacob Brem (who was in a fireworks accident) is still having many problems.  They've had to put metal rods in his eyelids...he's got a busted eardrum and then this news today...."Made it home have to be back next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  The doctor says his eye isn't any better but they are now focusing on his reconstructive surgery they are going to do it next Wednesday and use skin graft from his lip to try and fix his eyelid.  They said this is one of possibly many surgeries to come. Please continue to remember him in your prayers for strength and healing. We haven't even began to cover the hole in his ear drum yet. Thanks so much for all the prayers already we love you all!"

My co-worker, Kevin Santana's dad, Jose Santana, is in a hospital in Tyler.  He's been very ill for the last week and his kidneys were to the point of kidney failure.  He is better today though. 

Prayer Requests - 9/5 - 9:14pm

Cleve Fendley is recovering from gallbladder surgery today.

Michael & Kristi Lee are grieving the loss of his sister, Lajuanna Castle, as she was killed in a car accident this morning in Colorado.

Prayer Requests - 9/5 - 1:17pm

Vicki Humphrey sent this message today:  "Dr. Kay Queen, an adjunct instructor for PJC, has a 23 year old grandson Tyler (she and her husband raised him) who was involved in a serious accident yesterday.  He underwent surgery at a hospital in Tyler last night for brain and leg injuries."

Faith Williams had a really rough weekend.  They had to put her back in ICU and on a ventilator.  They did an MRI and she has no brain damage.  They are now trying to wean her off of the vent.  They need to stabilize her blood pressure and give her lasix to get some fluid off her lungs.  There is some pneumonia that they are also testing.  They are re-testing her DNA study to check donor/hosts count.  (If you will rememeber, she had a stem cell transplant a month ago from a non-family donor.)   If Faith is still 2/3 B-cell (bad cells) to 1/3 donor (good cells) that means that the stem cells have not engrafted as hoped...and if stem cells do not engraft, cancer is most likely to recur.  The Dr says that he and his team are stumped.  They are writing their own book with Faith's condition.

Wednesday Night For The Master will begin again this Wednesday night.  We will meet in the classroom under the basketball goal in the OutReach Bldg.

This is a group that sends cards to the sick, the shut-ins and our military.  The list is made up from prayer requests from classes on Sunday mornings.

Please contact me at mollywoodall@suddenlink.net or my cellphone at 903-669-4382.
