    Prayer request

    Tomorrow my FIL goes in to have a brain tumor removed. This is the second time in three years. The first time around they couldn't get more than about 90% of it and the remainder started growing again. 40% increase in the last year. This time the original surgeon says he wasn't going to touch it and was referring him to a highly specialized facility. This time there will be 2 teams of surgeons accessing from 2 locations. This is going to be a long venture with high probablity of risk.

    I ask that you keep him in your prayers.

    Matt

    Matt, we will pray for your father in law as well. Sorry to hear the tough news, and thanks for asking for people to lift him up before the Lord.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with your family & FIL. My brother had a brain tumor removed at University of Michigan hospital....19 years ago & he's still doing fine. There is always hope, keep the faith strong!

    Matt, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. As a good friend of mine, whose daughter is awaiting a heart and lung transplant, says, "with all the modern technology, this is a good time to be sick". There is always hope.

    Matt, your father in law, is in my prayers, as well as you and your family. I also pray that God gives the doctors the wisdom and knowledge to safely remove the tumor.

    God Bless, Sam

    Of course. I hope everything goes well.
    It’s only work if somebody makes you do it.
