Baylor procedure rescheduled

Thank you for your prayers! God heard and answered!

We got a call today informing us Ron's procedure had been moved up. He will undergo the double balloon enteroscopy tomorrow, Tuesday, Feb 24 at 6AM. We weren't too surprised they were moving him to an earlier date, except they only do this procedure on Monday's and Wednesday's. Not sure how it happened but for whatever reason, they are making an exception for him. He is more than ready to get this procedure behind him and is hopeing to finally get some answers.

Please pray:

for Dr. M as he performs the procedure, that it will not be his hands, but God's; and that it will be God's wisdom as well as the knowledge He has given that brings about a definitive answer. Dr. M will use a 12 foot long scope to thread down Ron's throat and snake down through intestines. YIKES!

that scar tissue will not be an issue and they will be able to go as far down as necessary.

for Ron, that the discomfort will be minimal.

that the results will be much better than we would have ever imagined

I would be lying to say I'm not a little anxious; I'm not sure if it's more anxiety that they will find something; or that they won't! However, God keeps reminding me He is in control and I'm to be anxious for nothing.

Thanks, faithful prayer warriors! Not sure how quickly we'll know results, if they'll tell us right away or not, but I'll try to update sometime tomorrow.

GOD IS ABLE!

Much love,

Christie
