A long day for Scot, Carolyn and Brent. Brent's blood pressure needs to become more stable. While a dressing was being changed an incident occurred and Brent ended up going for a two hour surgery on Saturday afternoon. This caused a scare and some stress for his parents.
The surgery went fine. A blood transfusion was required. Brent is now being heavily sedated again to allow his body to heal properly.
Good news...when they were checking his legs and toes there was some movement today.
Pray for Scot and Carolyn - they are tired and experiencing alot of stress.
Pray for the following for Brent - for the blood pressure to be normal, for his body to become stronger so less sedation is required, for healing for his heart, intestine, bowel. Pray for a stronger back and more movement in his legs.
I read with Scot James 5:14 - 15 " Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make them well; the Lord will raise him up"
Please keep praying.
My heart aches for and loves this family greatly.

ReplyDeleteWe are members of Ken and Myrna Priebe's church in Kelstern. We want you to know that many are praying for you here. We will update the church this morning and we will continue to stand with you in prayer. May you feel His presence and Love and the prayers of many.
ReplyDeleteThanks to Scot & Carolyn for allowing these updates to be posted. We check them regularly and continue to pray for all of them. Our daughter sung the song, Jesus Take the Wheel, today at home and dedicated it to Brent. Although she has never met him, she prays for him. Our daughter is also 14. She has sung this song many times but today we saw tears in her eyes as she sung the chorus. Brent has developed an unseen friendship. Here is the chorus she sung:
ReplyDeleteJesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'ma let it go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel.
Hope this message can give you strength.
K&O Aiken, & daughter Dallis
