Prayers

My Mom's family needs prayers...her step-dad is going into surgery on Tuesday morning to install an artificial vein in his leg. He has next to no circulation anymore and has no real usable veins of his own (he has already had two double bypass surgeries). The doctor says they have to get him in & out of surgery as fast as they can b/c they're not sure how much his heart can take.

He sounded pretty upbeat when I talked to him this morning, but we are all unsure of what could happen. There is always the possibility that he will not survive the surgery or it just won't work. If that is the case they said the only other option is aputation.

Please pray for him and my grandmother, there names are Lawrence and Kathleen Wells, and for my parents as they travel up to KY to be there for the surgery.
