Brother Laten

Last week or so, I wrote about how blessed and thankful I am especially for good health!!  You may remember I mentioned about a man in our Church, Brother Laten.  He has had his share of many physical issues.  When I wrote that he was doing pretty good.  This past week on Monday he began running a fever again and feeling really bad.  This is not good for him as usually it's a sign something is going on with his liver.  In case you didn't read that particular post, he had to have his gallbladder removed probably two years or more.  When performing the surgery the doctor cut and sewed his bile duct shut!!  He's nearly died two times because of problems due to this.  Well, on Tuesday he was admitted to the hospital here in Cayman.  They finally got his fever under control and he's feeling some better.  He told his wife on Monday that he is getting so tired of this!!  So sad and it's all because of the surgeon's negligence!!  After going through many tests this week he is undergoing surgery again tomorrow morning at 9:00 and they are going to try to repair his bile duct.  Brother Laten needs a lot of prayer for tomorrow for the surgery and the coming weeks and months as he recovers!!  He's such a great person.  So, if you think of him please pray that God will guide the surgeon's hands through this complicated surgery and for a complete recovery with no problems!!    Thank you!!

P.S.  This morning early our phone rang and I answered it.  He called me from the hospital to wish me Happy Birthday.  How touching that was!!
