    Prayer for my Brother-In-Law

    Please pray for my brother-in-law and his family. Charlie suffered a major heart attack yesterday and will require open-heart surgery to survive. However, his heart is not strong enough to survive surgery (only functioning at 10 percent). The doctors say it has to get to 36-40 percent before they can do the necessary bypasses.

    He has been married to my sister for over 50 years (since I was 5 years old). He got me started in reloading when I was 12. He taught me to trap shoot and would take me every weekend to compete when I was just a kid.

    Prayers for Charlie, my sister, their sons and grandchildren. Above all, may God's will be done.

    Thank you,
    Rick

    Heavenly Father we come before to You and ask You to guard Charlie and to give him the will and strength to get back to his normal self. We ask You to look in on his family and give them comfort in this time of trial, We ask You to be with those who care and treat him to be kind caring and uplifting to him. Father we are weak and needy in these frail fleshly bodies and we always need you every second of our lives, We love You because You first loved us and we know you are here with us guiding us through the days You have prepared. We ask You to be with this family and that You will receive all honor and glory in all things, In Jesus name, Amen!

    Heavenly Father, I come to You to ask for healing and comfort for Charlie. You know his situation and You know what prayers can do. I pray that You allow the physicians and medical team to bring Charlies heart output to the level necessary to do his surgery. Father, I ask that You remove all fear from Charlie, his family and his friends. Please hear my prayer for healing and comfort. Amen

    Update: They flew Charlie to St. Louis last night. His heart function had increased a little, but now has worsened. His wife (my sister) and his sons are with him. The doctors aren't very optimistic about his survival chances. But, the Lord is in control and we all know that. I am praying that his suffering will end soon, either by a medical recovery or by his being with the Lord, our Father. I am and will always be thankful for the memories Charlie and I made together through over 50 years.

    The family thanks all of you for your thoughts and prayers. They mean so much at this difficult time.

    Rick

    Thank you all for your prayers.

    I just received word that they are going to try a "new" stint procedure this evening. Not a "fix" and they said it was very risky in his case, but they are hoping it will allow his heart to improve its function, then re-evaluate later as to how to proceed or if there is anything else they can do for him.
