Master Surgeon said "It is Gone"

For the past three days we have been waiting for the surgeons to be able to perform a process that would take away the pain in her abdomen from the obstruction that has landed her in the hospital. Because her levels of potassium have been dangerously low, we had to wait until they were safe to proceed. We got the word this morning that it was a go. The waiting has been hard because we knew that once they would drain the fluid she would be without all the pain from the obstruction that has her unable to eat or drink. With all of us at her side since early morning and patiently waiting for them to call her to surgery we finally got the word at 2:30 to bring her down to the CT department. We all walked down to surgery waiting and kissed her and told her that the pain was going to be gone soon. The doctors said that it would take about an hour to perform the paracentesis and insert the j-tube. About thirty minutes into the process the Doctor came into the room with this big smile on his face and asked if we wanted some good news on Christmas eve? I looked into this mans eyes as he said the words that we all wanted to hear about this cancerous tumor or leison, "IT'S GONE". The obstruction that the doctors indicated that would not be treatable and only surgery to remove it that would most likely take her life, had disappeared from the CT scan and her intestines after being three times the size as normal because of the obstruction, are of normal size again. We all came around her bed the other day in prayer and asked God to bring us a miracle. Looks like the master surgeon has done it again..... Thank you to everyone who has stayed the course with us from the beginning. This miracles for you too....

Scott...when I think of our heavenly Father in how He has heard the prayers and hearts of those who trust and believe and have cried out for Lorrie to be healed...and who believe in the power of prayer and have stood in the gap for her in these battles she and your family had to face. It must move Him for the love that they have in their hearts for her and all of you during this time. Each day is a miracle with Lorrie and God never put anything on us that we can't handle, and He won't see us through it without Him by our side.
He knows her well..for she is His daughter and before she was born I believe He gave her what she would need to stand on her faith in Him, and be the light that He would shine through her with the faith that moves mountains and witness of His saving grace and healing touch. I believe God does nothing in vain, and can use any of His kids to effect many with love and faith in Him, for those who are willing to bend their knees and pray for another and stand with them to see the hand of God answer prayers. this is the flower of faith that He has chosen for time, to have the faith and belief in God and His word, in not what you see, but what you don't see and believe. What a Awesome God we have for those who believe and an open door for those who don't..and you can see His light whenever she looks at you and smiles. A smile that has melted the hearts of many and drawn you to do nothing more but smile back.
And I like to think that her Dad has also joined in with all those that have and are praying..in his own way.
And Scott I can't say enough about the love and partnership you have shown and shared with her...Thank you father for answer prayer.

love,
Teresa
