Our 26 yr. old daughter, Mikaela, took herself to the ER Wed. because of extreme stomach pains. She was diagnosed with a 'complex hemorrhagic ovarian cyst'. She was told they can be fatal so we are thanking God that she felt the need to get to the ER. She was given meds to dissolve the cyst and will need to be monitored to make sure more aren't forming. She's in college an hour away and didn't call us because 'I knew you would freak out and drive down and I didn't want you to if it was no big deal'. She got strict instructions NOT to think that again.
My cousin (we have always called each other our sister rather than cousin), Cindy, was taken from work yesterday to the ER. She had emergency surgery yesterday and the dr. found she had a twisted intestine. The dr. told us they got there 'just in time', twisted intestines cause loss of blood flow to tissues, etc. and had she not gotten to the ER when she did most likely would have died.
So the Lord was caring for both of them even before anyone knew there were problems. Your prayers for complete recovery would be greatly appreciated. Especially for Mikaela since she has been told that these can continue to form.
Thanks everyone,
Cath and family
