Prayer Request -- UPDATE on Jen Gary

Mark Gary called this morning (Wed) and asked that I share the lasted update on Jen with you so you could share it with the class. She had a colonoscopy this morning and they found that she has acute diverticulitis. For now they are now treating her with antibiotics then she will have to decide if she wants to have surgery on her colon at a later date or not.

They were relieved this morning to find out what it was. She is still at JSMC and may get to go home tonight if she is able to keep her food down. Today will be the first time she has eaten since 6pm Sunday night. Mark and the kids are doing pretty good.

They appreciate your prayers and asked that you continue to pray for her.

-------Original Message------- Andrew, Thank you for sending the e-mail out. It has been a very difficult Christmas for the kids and I. Just giving you an update on Jen's condition. They have scheduled a colonosopy for early a.m. on Wed depending on her white blood cell count. We are praying they can treat it medication but there is a chance for surgery. The kids have had a good day so far but it is tough with mom not here. We are taking alot of gifts to the hospital this morning to have Christmas with Jen. Thank you and the class for your prayers and concern. I will call or e-mail you when I know more. Mark

Prayer Request - Jen Gary in the Hospital

Hey Team:

Debbie Gary called this morning (as did Kim Batts) to let me know that Jen Gary is in the hospital. They have ruled out several things but still do not know what has caused pain in her side and other problems. Right now they have admitted her to the hospital and started her on intravenous antibiotics. It sounds like she will be in the hospital for at least a couple of days.

Please remember Jen, Mark and their family in you prayers. Debbie said that she has the children and will let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Press on....

Andrew
