My turn to ask for your prayers...


May I ask for your prayers?

On Friday of this week I'll be having bariatric (weight loss) surgery.  I'll be in the hospital for about two days and then recuperating at home for up to two weeks. 

(If you follow the link you'll find another for a video on the procedure I'll be having.  The surgeon in the video is the one who'll be operating on me.)

While I'm confident about this decision and pleased to have finally made it, I would still appreciate your prayerful support.

I'm not sure when I'll feel up to blogging and posting so my place in cyber space will be quiet for at least a while.  In the meantime, you can always visit my blog and check the archive links on the side bar.  I've been blogging daily for eight years so there should be enough there to cover some days off.

With this post, I'll be going off the grid and will begin to write and reply when I'm feeling up to it.

Thank you, in advance, for your prayerful support!

  2. Prayers on the way. I read your blog each morning. Many days your prayer focuses exactly on what has been on my heart. Funny how it works like that. May your surgery be successful and your recovery quick. With gratitude.

  5. Many prayers for you, dear Austin. I have a few friends, both male and female, who have had this surgery, and they have recovered well and had a new lease on life. I wish you health, healing, and strength. Let me know if you need anything.
