Healing for two

Please continue to pray for our uncle George Schurz.  He had his pacemaker replaced with a defibrillator type this past Thursday an he was set to come home on Monday/Tuesday.  However, Sunday they discovered some unknown bleeding and they will likely be performing both upper and lower GI scoping, delaying his release. 

The bleeding could be the cause of his anemia.  Please pray that all the tests go well and that they are able to discover and treat the source of the bleeding, and also for thanks that the problem was discovered before he left the hospital and started back to California by train/bus.

Please also pray for our cousin Travis (George's son and the reason he went back to Texas) as he developed blood clots in each of his lungs and also a minor case of pneumonia, which will extend his stay in the hospital by 3-4 days.  Pray that he will recover form the broken hip/surgery quickly and will be able to leave the hospital soon.  Please also pray that once he leaves the hospital that he will successfully complete alcohol rehab.

Thank you,

The Ellis'

No stints or clearing of his arteries were needed.  As such he will now have the new pacemaker and defibrillator placed at 3:00 this afternoon. We ask for prayers for a successful placement and speedy recovery. 

Thanks once again for your continued prayers. We are very thankful Uncle George has been able to recover so quickly from this.

Healing and Strength

To our Calvary Lutheran family, many thanks for your prayers. The Lord is gracious and kind. As you already know, Peter is losing hair. Almost half of his hair has fallen out. We were very concerned. Last Monday, the doctor did some blood tests and yesterday a specialist examined him further. Both returned promising results. The specialist said, Peter will outgrow this disorder and the doctor said, the lab test results were all normal. Although Peter is not completely healed yet, the Lord just told us not to worry. For that we could not be happier. We thank the Lord and all of you for caring. May the Lord always bless all of you and give you peace. Thank you,

Aguilar family

 

Took son, Stephen to the doctor yesterday morning and found out he has Type1diabetes. He's been admitted to Kaiser Oakland, to get sugars stabilized and educate us. Probably 2-3 days. His sugars were 427 when admitted; 80 -100 is normal. He seems to be doing ok with diagnosis, but this is all still new.  Pray for strength and encouragement.
