Prayer List

Praises & Answers to Prayer

• Rusti Field’s sister’s nephew, Josh Wright,  has pancreatitis which is affecting the liver and they have discovered he has some type of infection in his body. During surgery, doctors found a lot more than they expected and could not close him up due to too much infection.  (5/21)
• Jack White was in Brandon Regional Hospital from May 9th through May 11th and was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure.  He had fluid in his lungs and around his heart and was treated successfully for that while in the hospital.  Upon a follow up visit with his heart doctor this morning, the doctor felt that a stress test is needed in order to find out what is going on with Jack’s heart.  He had been stable for at least 10 years since his heart attack and bypass surgery, but something has changed and his heart has weakened.  The stress test is scheduled for next Wednesday, May 22nd at 11:00 a.m.  (5/21)
• Andrea Bogle’s current job is running out in July.  Pray that the Lord will open up some doors and that she will find another job right away.  Andrea’s husband lost his job two years ago. (5/17)
• Marilyn Wertz’s close friend’s mother, Carole, has colon cancer. She has a 5 cm tumor that will need to be removed.  Surgery is scheduled for early on May 30^th.    Unfortunately, Carole’s husband is not in very good health either – he is suffering from kidney failure and depends on Carole for all of his home care.  Please pray for Marilyn’s friend, Julie, and her parents. (5/17)
• Dot Murphy’s great grandchild, Ellie Callahan is only one month old, and has been running a very high fever.  She is in a hospital in Miami, Florida and they expect her to be there for about three days.   At the last report, they have managed to get the fever down some.  (5/14)
• Karen Rooks’ dear neighbor’s great grandson, Sebastian, who is only 5 has been diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease.   It is genetic and there is no known cure and Sebastian has two younger sisters.   Please pray for the family and God’s intervention into the circumstances. (5/9)
• Charlotte Myrick is scheduled for surgery at Moffitt on May 10, 2013 at 10 am. She has previous history of cancer from about 8 years ago and she will have a mastectomy on the right to hopefully take care of the situation. Her family has a lot of history of cancer so she would appreciate prayer for her and the doctors. (4/30)
• Beth Pollard’s daughter, Jody, was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. (4/23)

• Margaret Fein’s husband, Allen, has a mole near his temple that has been diagnosed as melanoma.  He will have surgery Tuesday morning and they will try to determine if the cancer has spread to his lymph glands.  If it has, then they will continue with the surgery to remove the cancerous glands.  Margaret is a speech therapist and has worked with several families at Bayshore.  Please pray for strength for Allen and Margaret and wisdom for the doctors.
