Immediate Prayer Request

At 10:00 tonight Noe's nurse determined that Noe was less responsive. She alerted the MD and he ordered another CT scan. The neurosurgeons were notified. The CT scan shows more swelling at the surgery site. She is being prepared for emergency surgery right now(11:30 pm). They will open the skull cap and allow the brain to swell without restriction. They will insert a pressure monitor to follow the swelling. This is a life threatening situation. She will also need a future surgery to close the skull cap. Please pray for the surgery team, for Noe's body to remain strong, and for Alex who's exhausted.

"Praise the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits - who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." Psalm 103:2-5

Father God, we pray for our loving sister Noe at this time. Hold her close Father, for she is weak. Give her strength and rest. We pray also Lord that you give the surgery team and hospital staff the wisdom to make the right decisions and that you guide their hands and minds towards a successful surgery.
We pray also Father God for Alex as his body is weary and weak. We pray for restoration of his strength as he continues throughout the evening and early morning. Thank You Father for the comfort that only you can provide. Amen

Noe and Alex,

What a roller coaster ride you are on.
but, Jesus is riding right along with you.

Thinking of you with much love and lots
of prayers. Wake up every morning and pray for the healing he can give you.
Mother Mary is there, too.

Wonder how the kids are holding up with their mom not being around.

love and hugs, Aunt Mary Ann
