Please pray for my friend whose mother passed away shortly after midnight on Friday, May 8. Mother's Day (today) will be particularly hard for her.

I ask that you would pray for the sons and daughters who are missing their mothers today. Bring comfort in their sadness and peace if any anger or hurt remains. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Please pray for my Grandson. He is 17, he and Grandpa were trying to get a tractor pulled up over a steep hill, the strap broke and rolled over him twice. He is in Mercy Hospital with a broken femur and they are taking xrays and CT now. He is in horrible pain. Thank you for praying. I am thinking he will need surgery.

Update as of 5/7/20: He broke his femur, all the way through. He\'s going to have surgery in the morning, and will be in the hospital for a few days but he\'ll be able to bear weight on it when he gets home, no cast at all.

He\'ll have a metal rod though. They\'re X-raying the rest of his body right now to make sure nothing else is broken. CT scans were normal so no internal bleeding.

Update as of 5/8/20: He\'s out of surgery, it went well, but it looks like he\'ll be staying here for longer than we expected. They had to do a fasciotomy to relieve the major swelling in his muscle, so he has a long incision on his leg that will remain open until the swelling goes down to prevent muscle damage. So that will mean at least one, if not more surgeries as it heals. The doctor told me to expect him to be here for more like 10 days than the original 3.

Thank you for your continued prayers. Please keep Frank (Grandpa) in prayer.

Update on 5/9/20: Good news. My grandson came out of the horrendous drugs they had him in and he is doing much better! They are even getting him up to walk. He’s not wincing in pain or anything. Praise The Lord!!!! He doesn’t remember anything about the past two days. He had a rough two days and more surgery this week but Praise The Lord, he is on the road to recovery!

Update on 5/10: They gave my grandson a unit of blood (he has some kind of pump that is draining the wound) and he perked up afterward. His surgery is tomorrow, it was going to be first but someone else got hurt with multiple breaks so please keep them in prayer also. They have had him up each day, his pain is about a 5 or 6. They have him on some pain meds. He is eating and sleeping better. Thank you for your prayers.

Update on 5/11: They just took my grandson into the OR. It should be a short surgery. Please pray that they can close his leg today without needing any additional surgeries or skin grafting. Pray my grandson won\'t need a skin graft, his legs are so muscular from ice hockey they are afraid the swelling will not go down and they will not be able to close it. I rebuke those words in Jesus Name I declare Supernatural healing. right before their eyes!!! In Jesus mighty Name!

They closed him a little, but just a tiny bit on the top and the bottom. She said they\'ll go back in on either Wednesday or Thursday and try again, but based on what she saw today, she thinks he\'s probably going to need skin grafts to close. She said with all that muscle he has, it\'s just not going down enough to where there\'s enough skin to close him. he\'s going to be devastated when he hears.

So if they do the grafts on Thursday it\'ll be at least another 5 days after that before he can leave. But it might take one more surgery, probably not until next Monday, and then another 5 days after this.

Please pray for a supernatural encounter with Jesus and that he won\'t be discouraged and will be able to pass the time with faith .

Update on 5/12: PT came in and had him on crutches and then doing the stairs a bit and then put him in the recliner.

His pain was pretty bad after a more intense physical therapy today. More surgery in the morning I just found out. Pray that it is the last one and they can close it without a skin graft please. Trusting You Jesus!!!!

Update on 5/13: It closed today and they are letting him come home today!!!!!! Thank You Lord!!!! Thank You Jesus!!!! Hallelujah!!!!

Shellie and John

My husband went into the hospital a week ago today with a ruptured appendix. He was supposed to come home several days ago but the infection has set itself in deep. He now has a wound vac and has to have needle aspiration of pus pockets that have formed. His antibiotics have been changed a couple of times. Because John has currently changed jobs we do not have insurance and because we do not have insurance and we do not qualify for state insurance or charity through the hospital he has to stay in there until infection is gone. He told me today that the doctor is saying at least 5 more days. We truly cannot afford for him to be off work or the medical bills but that is not my main concern. His health is my main concern. I know without God nothing is possible. I firmly believe God will get us through any and all things. Is it hard? Right now its very hard but I stay firm in my belief. So Im asking for prayers for John mainly. Ill take prayers for me to but John is the priority. Thank you guys so much. Im so very grateful.

Rita & Michael Leap

Our dear friend has been suffering for some time with migraines and it was just discovered recently that she has a brain tumor. Her husband of less than a year is also a close friend and is struggling with the newness and uncertainty of her condition. Worst of all, the hospital doesn’t currently allow visitors, not even spouses....we can’t imagine the level of helplessness and anxiety he must be going through.

We are asking for as many simultaneous prayers as possible from our extended church family tomorrow when she has her biopsy performed at 9 am and that the results are benign and that they are able to provide her relief from her pain.
