Prayer works!

I am extremely pleased to report that Louie is out of surgery and doing wonderful!  Thank you Father!  Marianne reports that Louie is wide awake and even smiling :)  The doctor even came out proclaiming that prayer works and that this is a good day!  Surgery could not have gone any better.  The whole family praised in the hallway!!!

Marianne got a full report from the doctor, here are some of the highlights:
-All of the tumors were successfully removed and Louie is in recovery
-All of the cancer was under the nerves and it was all removed
-The way the tumors were laid out and how the cancer grew was ideal for removal, doc said it was the absolute best case scenario
- A skin graft wasn't needed, the doctor was able to use the skin on the neck
-Louie should be home in 3 days, no intensive care was needed
-The only damage done was slight nerve damage to the right corner of his mouth and it is only temporary

Can you say WOW?  How great is our God?

God is continuing to use Louie and this trial to bring others closer to the Lord.  God is working to bring restoration to those around Louie and continues to build the family stronger.  The whole family is overjoyed and thankful for your unified faith and prayers.

Please pray that the type of cancer Louie has will be responsive to treatment and pray for a quick recovery and lots of healing rest. 

No visitors today, check back tomorrow to see if Louie is feeling up to having guests.
