BRENT'S IN ALOT OF PAIN...........DAY 189

Hey everyone,

Thank you for your ongoing prayers. Brent returned to his room around 3 p.m. Brent continues to overcome the obstacles he's been facing this year. Today, another milestone was reached as the operation on Brent's back was successful.

Brent is strong and facing the pain with great determination. Here are some more details about today:
  • pray for protection for Brent's body - there is a risk of infection
  • Brent threw up tonight and generally is not feeling well
  • there is considerable amount of pain in Brent's back and he's having moments of being uncomfortable
  • Brent is also experiencing strong back spasms
  • pray that he will have a long, sound sleep tonight
  • pray that he will be ready to do physio

The staff at Regina General are incredible and the Peterson family is grateful for their efforts. Brent's vitals are doing great and his attitude is very positive. We give thanks to God for guiding and being with this family.

Keep hoping.Keep loving.Keep praying.

    Thanking God tonight for His mercy and grace, as He brought you through another tough day. We are continuing to pray that healing would be evident day by day, and Brent would strengthen quickly and his pain would subside miraculously.
    Thank you Lord for answered prayer over and over again.
    Scot and Carolyn - rest!

  3. When we are weak, He is strong. Brent you and your Heavenly Father will walk through this together as you have many battles in the past 6 months. You will come out stronger and more prepared for what He has in store for you.

    We are praying, trusting and loving - always.
