Surgery Update by Jacob

This is Cathy's son Jacob posting an update. Cathy is out of surgery and in the ICU recovering. The 5 hour surgery went well! Thankfully she didn't have to have an ileostomy!! Thanks to the Lord for that!! The doctors had to remove the ovary, uterus, and both suspicious areas. We are still waiting to hear the results from pathology. Please keep praying for Cathy's quick recovery, so she can come home soon, and that the pathology findings are negative of cancer. Thank you all for praying. Dad, James, and I will keep updating as things happen. I love you Mom, and can't wait for you to come home!! Jacob

  1. Dear Jacob,
    Thanks so much for updating us on your mom- it means a lot. Please let her know we are praying for her and the prayer warriors in my life are also praying for her and your family.
    Your mom seems to be a pretty amazing woman and I have gotten so much from her posts - whether it be from her being a great mom or the Godly woman she is- she has been a blessing to me as I am sure to all of you.
    Praying for strength for you family and wonderful reports.
    Have a good night,
    Sincerely,
    Rachel Andersen

  2. I have thought about all of you so much today.... Everytime I jotted down the date, you were on my mind and I said a special prayer that God would heal this Mama and surround this family with his comfort and peace. My heart aches beacause you all have endured so much, yet, my heart rejoices because you have overcome so many trials. Be strong and Keep the faith!!!!
