Praise/Prayer Requests

Hi everyone--I hope you are having a great week! WE are on Spring Break this week, and I have enjoyed it so far:-)

1. Congrats to the Lady Saints on their State Championship! Way to go!

2. Beattie: Kathy sent me an email today about her mom: Could our class please pray for my mom, Rita Humphrey. She went in last week for test and total bone scan to see if her bones were strong enough for a total hip and knee replacement. This surgery would need to be done as soon as possible. She was born without most of one of her hips and has had 2 new ones built in, in her life time. She is almost unable to walk and in a ton of pain. This old hip of 33 years has deteriorated and has scraped away at the good bone around it and they are not still quite sure if there is enough bone to reconstruct and hold in a new hip. The old hip that the metal extends down the leg has cracked the knee and femur . If they find that that the damaged bone can not hold the new hip she will be confined to a wheel chair for the rest of her life. Well that surgery and all it's testing has been put to an immediate stop because during the bone scan they found a black spot on the inside of her skull and they do not know if it is cancer or not. Testing yesterday has just begun on that. We will know by Tuesday of next week what that is and how to treat it. My mom just turned 67 and had to be in the hospital on her birthday having all these test. Not the best of gifts.
God is good and my mom is a very strong believer and she has accepted that if God wants her in a wheel chair for the rest of her life, so be it and she knows that her hip has failed now so that this spot could be revealed hopefully early enough to be stopped and healed.
Thanks for the prayers in advance.
In Christ's love,Kathy B.

3. Don't forget to sign up for Friday Night Out by midnight tomorrow if you received a voucher. Email Dorothy at dorothyo@fbcs.net

4. Shon just found out a colleague of his had a stillborn baby back in February. This was their first child, a girl, and they had a routine stress test the day before the birth that was normal. Please keep them in your prayers--their names are Chris and Anne Horbelt.

5. If anyone has anything else, please let me know!

Not sure who has the next snack round--please search the blog below this post:-) I'll pass around a new sheet this coming Sunday.
