Good morning, all. I hope you slept well last night because my sister Jenny surely did not. She is in unendurable pain. She said that it is no longer her leg, but the rest of her. It hurts so badly to breathe because of the broken ribs. Apparently, they were changing around her pain medications in preparation for the surgery and that had a real effect on her. My mother said she woke suddenly in the night (Jenny) and cried out "God help me!" Please pray for God to help her today. Pray that He will soothe her, pain and mind.
Her surgery has been moved to 10:00. She will have her jaw wired shut as it is broken in two places. She will have three plates put in her face, one above the eye, one below the eye and one to the left of the chin. It sounds like the whole left side of her face needs to be reconstructed. Please pray for the hand of the surgeon, that he will be able to return her face to exactly what it was before the accident. In the middle of all this, Jenny asked him if he did free mole removal! She wants the mole taken off (the one near her right eyebrow!). In all respects, please pray for today. She is going to have a really hard road ahead. She will need every bit of support she can get. I will let you know later today when I have more of an update on Isabella's move and how the surgery went. Until then, my friends and family, intercede.
