Asking for prayers. Having surgery Monday. (Vanity)

[USMCWife6869]

Hi all. I think this is my first vanity. I'm hoping you all don't mind, but I'm asking for prayers for myself. I'm having surgery on Monday, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't absolutely terrified. The surgery is a core decompression of the femural head in my right hip. I have Avascular Necrosis in both hips, likely due to a lifetime of taking Steroids for Asthma.

I have 3 daughters, and I'm so afraid of something happening to me. My respiratory history is awful, and both my parents died young, and it all just makes me scared. Luckily, my husband is home, and he has been given leave to care for me post-operatively for the first two weeks. I will be unable to bear weight on the leg for 8 weeks, but my awesome Marine Corps family is already rallying to help.

Everyone here is always so generous in offering prayers and support, so I was hoping I could ask for some. Thanks so much in advance.

I will absolutely pray for this situation and I understand how unnerving it can be. May our great Lord heal what needs to be healed and grant you the peace that comes from HIM.

And...while you wait for the good things HE will do for you, please ask Him to preserve freedom of religion in this country.

Saying Hail Marys for you. May all go well.

I trust you’ve thoroughly debriefed your anesthesiologist on your respiratory function. Trepidation is normal but try to relax and steel your faith, it’s better that way. You’ll be fine.

[unkus]

Prayers on the way. God bless you.
