Day 12 - June 27 - On His Way to Surgery
Just got off the phone - Connor is on his way to surgery, for the tracheotomy and feeding tube that was planned over the last couple of days.
Eric reported Connor in good spirits, and that the fever of yesterday was not present, both answers to prayer. Doctors have told Connor that they would expect him out of the collar in a few days, and able to be moved to a chair to sit up for a while, which having been on his back staring at the ceiling for the last week and a half, would be a huge blessing.
Pray for success in surgery, pain management for Connor, and continued moments of encouragement.
Like sunbeams through the leaves in a dark forest, each moment of encouragement is savored and enjoyed by the family.

Praise God for two more answers to prayer!
It will be wonderful, I'm sure, for Connor to have a change of view soon - we'll be praying for the surgery to go smoothly, continued protection from fever and infection, good spirits (for all!), and a sense of God's continued hand throughout this time.

P.S. Beautiful simile, Brad!
Anxious for complete recovery that I know is going to happen.
This journey has been a huge blessing to me and I'm certain for many others.The comments, the prayers & encouragement I've been reading on these pages has lifted my faith to a new level.
I've seen the tears and despair in Eric,Cherie and Joelle's eyes and also the profound strength of faith that I have not witnessed in years.I am humbled to be a friend.
See you Mon. A.M.

Our God tells us that He will never leave us nor forsake us, so hang tight to those words.He knows our thoughts, our prayers, our fears and He will see us through. As the song says," One day at a time."
