Bypass Happening NOW!

Well some serious beatbox listening has taken place here in the 4th floor ICU waiting room (we've moved back up) in the last hour...it is so fun to hear David sing and exercise his mad skillz. Upon hacking into his macbook we all breathed a breath of fresh air as we watched video of him on the djimbe having a blast and giving glory to Jesus. Doesn't David Baker just make you smile?

We have just received an update that again is positive, and again requires urgent intercession. The bypass is happening RIGHT NOW. Please pray for the veins to all cooperate...for the machines to all work properly...for the hands of Dr. Chen to stay steady and strong...for any other doctors or nurses in the room to have renewed vigor...for protection for David's mind...for his thoughts to be of Jesus...for fear to be bound from this waiting room...

The word is that the surgery could last 3 more hours. I will update as soon as we hear anything else, but it is likely we won't hear anything until the surgery is over.

Thank you for praying...the family knows you are lifting them up and they are experiencing what it really means to be surrounded by brothers and sisters and carried.

By your prayers, and by His Word.
