Some of you will know that my son, Noah has been very unwell all year with tonsillus and phnumonia. We finally have him booked in to have his tonsills out this coming Wednesday (Tuesday USA). We have been struggling to keep him well enough for the operation as it has already been cancelled once. Could you please pray for him that God will keep him save and healthy until the operation.
Could you please keep my father inlaw, Noel in your prayers as well. He is 79 years old and has cancer. At 2.50am (Australian time) this morning we got a call from Craig's mother. The hospital had just rung her and encouraged her to get to the hospital as quick as possible. Noel is now in intensive care on a resperator. This as happened all very quickly as this time last week he was at home doing OK. If you could keep all of us in your prayers that would be great.
May God bless you all
Karen

I will definitely keep your son in my prayers. I pray to God that he stays well enough to have his surgery so he can finally feel better! I will also add your FIL to my prayers. And your whole family.

Thank you my dear friends. I am finally home after being called to the hospital this afternoon. Noel is still the same and classified as "gravely ill". By 9pm tonight all of the family has arrived home. He still is unable to breath unassisted. I am off to bed now as I have been awake for the last 20 hours. Noah is well but now expressing fears he has about the operation. Will need to sit down with him and try to explain to this 6 year old what will happen. He told his uncle tonight that he thinks he will die if he has the operation.
Again thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. I have definately felt God's peace with me today.
May God Bless You All
