As some of you that were at the Hillbilly Highways Ride may know my wife Debbie "Ginger" is having open heart surgery today.
Please pray for her Doctors, the medical staff and that everything goes well for her.
Thanks in Advance.

Keeping Debbie in our thoughts and prayers.
Prayers are basically to express our wishes the the Lord. It's only meaningful if we follow through with expressing those wishes to someone else and doing what little we can about them.
Please give us an update when you can and let us know how and to where we can express our concern to Debbie.

I want to thank everyone for their prayers, they were effective.
The surgery went very well yesterday, even the surgeon seemed surprised at how quickly and well that it went.
Obviously she is hurting and will be recovering for awhile but all things considered she is off to a great start.

Good to hear. I'm sorry you two have had to go through the stress and turmoil. Is there an address that we can send paper or email to tell her we're thinking of her?

Thank You, I hadn't thought about this. From the hospital's website: E–mail a Patient We know you are thinking about your loved one under our hospital care. That’s why we have developed the “Get Well Soon E–Mail” program. To get started, send us an e–mail to guestservices@carilionclinic.org that includes your loved one’s name and get–well wishes (please do not include sensitive or confidential information in your message). Our Guest Services volunteers will hand carry the message to your loved one as quickly as possible. "Ginger's" name is: Debbie Nelson

Prayers!
Just got online and saw your posting. Been there and done that and had gotten the little heart pillow to go along with it (a Canadian thing only maybe?).
6 weeks on my back, only a remote, book or cup of coffee to lift. It's really hard to do NOTHING.

Deb "Ginger" is feeling a little down today.
The Dr told her yesterday that she would be coming home today.
This morning he told her that she has fluid in her lungs and that she needs to stay until Sun or Mon.
She could use some thoughts and prayers.

They let "Ginger" come home from the hospital yesterday.
She still has a lot of recovering to do but she is doing well and glad to be home.
She asked me to thank everyone for their prayers and to tell you that they have been appreciated and effective.
