I pray that both of you have a safe surgery. May God keep you near him throughout your surgery and bring you through safely in order to continue to be a blessing and an example to those around you. May he ease your minds of the fear and bring peace to your hearts because with Faith you can conquer all. We will continue to pray for you even after we hear from you two.

Please let us know you are o.k. when you feel up to it.
