Surgeries and Such

Dear Friends and Family,
 
We could use an extra bunch of prayers this coming week as we are more than a little overwhelmed.  Here's how things have turned out after some last-minute shuffling:
 
Wednesday, Dec. 3 (tomorrow):  AM- Jesse's return to the doctor to get a different kind of antibiotic because his infection isn't gone
 
                                                PM- Jesse's biopsy on a possible melanoma spot
 
Thursday,Dec. 4                        PM- if Zach is over his slight fever and cold he gets his second dose of flu vaccine
 
Friday, Dec. 5                           All day starting at 8am-- Joy's parotidectomy surgery
 
Wednesday, Dec. 10                Jesse's biopsy results/follow up appointment
 
Thursday, Dec. 11                    Zach's hernia repair surgery and laparoscopy to see if the other side needs to be repaired as well
 
Friday, Dec. 12                        Jesse's parents arrive-- something to look forward to!!
 
We want God's will most of all, for all of us, but with that in mind would ask you to pray that Jesse's spot will be benign, that I would recover quickly, not have to spend a night in the hospital, and be able to continue to nurse Micah afterthe aesthesia is out of my system, and that Zach won't have any complications.  Please pray also for his emotional health-- we have noticed he is often very anxious, and he is still not sleeping well.
 
Thank you for keeping us in your prayers again.  Joy
