May I ask a favor

Just a quick note before I leave for class, my 73 yr old father is having surgery on his cervical spine today.

He's lost 4 good friends to surgery. They either died in surgery or post op (pulmonary embolisms). He, along with myself are a little nervous. He had no choice, he'll be paralyzed from the shoulders down in 6 months of he does not do this. Asking my SR family for some thoughts and prayers today. Starting at 10;30 central time in the USA. Thank you.

It is absolutely OK to ask for
what you/we need in life. And
Prayers is/are always needed.

Just as I asked for prayers this
past weekend for our City of
Baton Rouge where several
of our local law officers were
shoot to death in what they
call an ambush/assassination.

I came here to SR and ask for
prayers and was so graciously
received by our SR family.

I in turn send prayers your way,
as well, for your dad as I hope all
goes well for him and can return
to a healthier mind and body for
yrs to come down the road.

Stay strong and connected with
us here in SR. We stand behind
our members strong with lots of
care and understanding.
