Update from Lon

Hi there. This was long talking to you from Fairfax hospital cardiac unit and Lord willing and the creek don't rise later today I'm going home. Praise the Lord I want to thank you for all your prayers.

They met so much and they really were efficacious barely made it. My heart was in bed so that such bad shape that the surgeon said he was starting to fail, even as they were just putting me to sleep. From that little bit of stress. It was failing so here he said that had we waited a week or even a few days after when the surgery was I would not of made it. I would had a massive widow maker heart attack and I would be going so praise the Lord for your prayers and thanks for your support. I is I know I told you they had to fix my aorta as well. While they were in my ascending aorta and that also was in worse shape than they thought. So altogether I'm just marvelous example of God's mercy and grace and I am so happy with that verse. I held onto his when one of them was Psalm 31. My times are in his hands and that's how sought I figured hey this is all in God's hands and I'm gonna wake up. I'm even going to be in heaven when I wake up or I'm going to be in the recovery room and a member waking up with that to the ventilator tube down my throat. My hands were tied to the bed so I couldn't reach and pull it out and I remember thinking specifically at that moment. Well this certainly in heaven, so I must've made it through the surgery.

So anyway that I continue to pray. If you would for me for this a field. This has bothered me.

We die we think we have it under control now so just pray for that. Please Jill's been doing great and we thank God for that. So continue prayers for her would be good and I'm just moves that we need to continue to pray for God's mercy on the human race. With these vaccines that are seeming to have a little bit of trouble now so anyway just wanted to bring you up-to-date.

What you hear my own voice and thanks to everyone we love you and we so appreciate your concern for me and my family. God bless you now I
