My stepfather who lives in Phoenix was visiting his children in Minnesota and stumbled and fell. He ruptured his spleen and broke several ribs and is currently undergoing emergency surgery to remove the spleen. The doctors best case scenario is that he will be hospitalized for five to seven days and then will be in rehab for four or five weeks before he will be able to travel back home to Phoenix. My mother was going to travel to California for my niece's wedding this weekend, but now is trying to decide how to be with Herm and what life will look like as he recovers in Minnesota.
Please pray for successful surgery and that he will recover well. He is 85 years old and there are numerous complications that could arise. Please pray things will go well.
Please pray for my Mom, Bernice, as she makes decisions about traveling and how and when to do that.
Please pray for Herm's children as they tend to their Dad's needs while he is far from home.
Thanks for your prayers.
