IT'S A GO!!!!!

They're getting Tricia ready for surgery! That's ALL we know at this point. There is still always a possibility that they'll get as far as the operating table and not be able to go through with it, but those chance are very slim.

Please be praying for the staff and surgeons as well as the donor family!

Also, be praying for my parents and Tricia's dad and others who are making the drive here right now.

Thanks!!! I'll post more as soon as I know.

We do the dance of joy!!!!! Now to Him who is able to do more than we could ever ask or imagine, to Him be glory, honor and praise (that's Jen's translation LOL).

Praying for safety for Tricia, quick recovery and that everything will be totally perfect!

Praying for you and your families for peace and comfort.

Judy said...

My 20 year old neighbor passed away this morning...you just have to wonder. My heart has been so broken and grieved for their family all day and now I'm thinking about the donor family. May the Holy Spirit comfort them in a way that only He can!!
But in the midst of such intense sorrow, something so beautiful can come out of it. I love seeing the joy on your faces in this post. God is so faithful! One prayer has been answered (for some lungs) now we need to be praying for the surgery, recovery and that Tricia's body will accept the lungs without many issues!! Lot's more to pray about and you can count on the fact that I will be praying all through the night!!! May Jesus bless and keep Tricia through the next few hours and days ahead!!

My sister Judy already mentioned that our 20 year old neighbor passed away this morning. We are grieving for that family and rejoicing and interceding with your family tonight.

May the peace of our Abba Father fill each of your hearts and may our Jehovah Rapha guide the hands of the surgeons, nurses and all involved! We serve such a faithful God. Praying and believing with you tonight!!
