MEDICAL
Susan Boling: Admittance into Northside Forsyth Hospital on July 5 for severe lower back and hip pain may have saved Susan’s life. During her stay, doctors discovered a serious bacterial blood infection—traced back to the roots of a few teeth—that could have been life-threatening if left untreated. She is now undergoing weeks of IV antibiotic treatment, managing its side effects along with her ongoing back pain, and preparing for a move to a rehab facility. May God bless the doctors and caregivers with knowledge and wisdom in her treatment. May the Spirit bring her comfort, strength, and peace.
Sherry McMillan: Has developed debilitating pain in both knees which will require knee replacement surgery. Please pray that Sherry will be able to manage the pain while awaiting treatment, and for strength during this process.
Chelsea Wrapp and Family: Neldon and Anna Watson’s granddaughter, Chelsea, who lives near San Antonio, Texas, was released from the hospital on July 10 after a two-night stay with concerns about blood clots. Thanks be to God, Chelsea’s latest scan was clear (no clots in lungs or legs). Chelsea and her husband, Trey (who is a minister), are blessed with four children, ages seven and younger, with the youngest being a one-month-old infant. Please pray for Chelsea’s health, diagnosis and treatment, and all the family. May the Spirit strengthen and comfort her and God grant full recovery.
Nina Reeves: Greg Lisby’s sister, Nina, isn’t doing well at all. Please pray God’s hand, the Spirit’s comfort, and peace will be upon her. May her faith be unwavering and steadfast.
Calli (sister of Bo Edwards): Calli is currently hospitalized in North Carolina, dealing with some mental health issues. Please pray for Bo, Calli, and her husband, William, who is taking care of their adult special needs son.
Mike Fischer: Doing very well as he recovers from neck surgery to repair damage sustained in a fall from a rock-climbing wall back in mid-June. So thankful that his back pain has receded and he is able to be up and around. He should be out of his neck brace (and hopefully his back brace) within several weeks. Please pray for a full recovery and for his wife, Pam, as she cares for him.
Anna Watson: Recovering slowly from knee replacement surgery performed on Monday, June 16, and is still dealing with periodic pain. Please pray for Anna’s rehab, for a pain-free knee, and for Neldon and daughter Carisse as caregivers.
Ava Beasley: Jim and Marjorie Beasley’s 13-year-old granddaughter, Ava, had successful scoliosis surgery on Friday, June 20. Ava seemed to turn a corner recently as her pain level dropped significantly. We are so thankful to God that this sweet girl is on the mend. May God continue to be with Ava in complete recovery.
John Wood: John had his fourteenth chemo treatment for pancreatic cancer on July 7 and is regaining strength after three days of feeling weak. Such are the effects of chemo as part of the healing and recovery process. Please continue to pray for John and his sweet family. As John continues treatments please pray for full remission of the cancer and complete healing.
Bert & Joyce Blackwell: Bert is at home under Joyce’s care as his health continues to slowly decline. Please pray for comfort for Bert, and strength, comfort, and energy for Joyce. Sign up to take a meal or contribute to their meal fund at mealtrain.com/yrzl3k.
David Wheeler: David continues to do very well for someone with prostate and kidney cancer. He has a wonderful, encouraging attitude even though he is not a candidate for kidney or prostate surgery. Thanks be to God that he has minimal pain and discomfort. David and his wife, Carolyn, have not attended worship in person since before COVID due to David’s immune system. Please pray for strength, comfort, and peace for David, and for Carolyn as caregiver. Give them a phone call, or call in advance and visit. You will come away inspired and encouraged! That goes for other members on our prayer request list, as well. Give them a loving call as the Spirit prompts you.
Esther and Russ Johnson: Esther recently changed doctors as part of her treatment for Parkinson’s disease and is also dealing with some gastrointestinal issues. Please pray that Esther’s ongoing and future treatments will lead to much better daily health, strength, and control over any anxiety. Please also pray for Russ as her caregiver.
Laura Johnson: We pray for Russ Johnson’s sister and her ongoing battle with bladder cancer (over nine years). The doctors are working to optimize her medications. Please pray for strength, reduced nausea, and that the treatments will rid her body of cancer.
