Dear Lord, Jim DeLong has a medical condition that needs your divine intercession. Please guide the surgeon's hands to be steady and effective to do the task at hand, and not create any further damage

 

We pray against any infection or complications. Calm the heart of his family. Give Jim your peace so his body can heal under the best conditions. In the name of Jesus, bless Jim to be healthier after this procedure than before. Lord allow this temporary trial to bring this family closer to you and each other.

 

When he is coming out of surgery, let the side effects be minimal. Work a miracle in this whole situation and bless it from beginning to end.

 

Thank you Lord for your blessing on this family. We praise you as we know we are in good hands- the very hands of God.

 

In Jesus name, we thank you for each day.  Amen.

Amen agreed in Jesus name

Although I don't know you personally, I do feel I know you through this form.We serve a great GOD and through Jesus we can ask for his help in times like these. 953 Nut said it very well, that all things are possible through our savior Jesus Christ.Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary,They shall walk and not faint, Isaiah 40:31. God speed and a quick recovery. Bob

Jim, in 2011 I went through a biopsy of the liver, something I really didn't want to go through. With the results of that I was able to be cured of the Hep.C virus that had been eating away at my liver for over 25 years. Best decision I ever made. I hope you also have a positive result from your procedure my friend.  :)

I hope you have a speedy recovery and every thing works out. Make sure they don't leave any tools inside or you will be setting off airport alarms.

Good luck Jim and my wishes for a speedy and healthy recovery.  My thoughts, as well as everyone else's here, are with you.

Sounds like you're going to the best place for the procedure too.

Jim wishing you the best! 

 

My father had a bout w cancer if the bile duct 7 years ago. Duct was removed and intestine tied directly into the liver. Liver had some cerosis, this is all due to having Hepatitis c. About 30 days post op he began collecting fluid on his abdomen. Approx 10 liters were removed every 10-15 days for 4-8 weeks via a shunt. 

 

Finally the surgeon recommended a procedure. A line was run from low pressure side of heart to the abdomen. A "primer" was used inline and installed by his hip. He would "prime" just like a small engine 2x a day while lying flat in bed. He pushed the button 10x to prime. Then the fluid would get pulled from abdomen thru heart and give his kidneys a chance to get nutrients from fluid and filter it out via urine. 

 

Crazy as it sounds worked! The pump was left in between 30-60 days. Dr said it could've been romeved aroubd 30 days. It gave the liver enough time to heal from surgery and chemo. I really thought my father was going to die. 

 

A year later they came w a cure for hepatitis c. $35000 month for 6 months. There were grants in place to cover the costs, we didn't have the $$$$.

 

Today he's hepatitis free. His liver hasn't been this good in 20 years. And he's still here.

 

I hope you're as lucky as my father was!
