Melanie Friesen
From Melanie Friesen: Thanks for praying for my nephew. Praise God, he is healing really well. His ultrasound looked good but showed a shadow that could be a hematoma. He will go back for another ultrasound in 2 weeks and has to have factor every day for a while to make sure he doesn’t bleed internally. He was discharged today. Continue to pray that he continues to heal well and for my sister and her husband as they have the difficult decision to make as to whether to try to do this surgery again.

From Melanie Friesen: Another update on my nephew: They took the tube out and he is breathing well on his own. He’s really tired and has been nauseous. They just gave him meds for nausea. They are giving him factor every 8 hours. He is doing well all things considered, but they need to watch him carefully. He hasn’t been able to drink yet. He will be in the hospital at least two more nights. Thanks for praying

Patti Bonas
From Patti Bonas: Hello to our church family. Not sure if I have done this lately. Dieter and I would like to thank all of you for your concern, care, prayers, visits, cards and gifts during my recent illness and hospitalization. It was a tough go but came through another serious illness once again. I believe the positive outcome was only due to prayer and the grace of God. We just can't thank you enough for being faithful along the journey. We hope to be back at church soon. God bless you all.

From Melanie Friesen: Please continue to pray for my nephew Luke. The surgery didn’t go well. They weren’t able to get the port in and they accidentally punctured the carotid artery. They have to keep him sedated for a couple days and are pumping him with factor to make sure he doesn’t bleed internally and heals.

From Melanie Friesen: Please pray for my nephew, Luke (my sister, Alisa's youngest). He has severe hemophilia and has been experiencing more frequent internal bleeds so he is having surgery tomorrow at 1:30 to have a port put in so that he will be able to receive his injections more often. This can be a risky surgery for someone with a bleeding disorder. Pray that everything goes smoothly and that my sister and her husband would sense the peace of God.
