Prayer Requests

Over the past few weeks we have heard of so many people who are praying for us. The body of Christ really is a great source of encouragement in trials. Because we know there are so many people praying, and because it can be hard to update each person individually, we will share some of our biggest prayer requests and updates through this blog.

Right now our top ones are.....

1. Please pray that the cancer hasn't spread and won't. We know God can contain it, and that is our greatest wish health-wise right now.

2. Please pray that the laser surgery works. It would be such a simple fix if all they had to do was a 90-second laser surgery operation. While this isn't the most effective form of treatment, the doctor's feel that it is the best, least invasive option. If it doesn't work, we will probably have to have a radioactive plaque inserted in the eye, or take the eye out completely. So the laser surgery working would be a huge blessing.

3. Please pray that insurance covers everything. They will probably cover the procedure, but there is an injection I need that the eye place tells me insurance usually doesn't cover. Please pray that ours will be the exception.

4. Please pray that the baby comes early naturally. The sooner the baby is born, the sooner I can start treatment. I can't go overdue because of the surgery, and since my due date is on a Friday and the hospital doesn't induce over the weekend, I will have to be induced some time in week 39 unless I go into labor naturally before then. That is our prayer.

Thank you all so much for praying. We will keep you updated as we know more. Right now, it's just the waiting game!
