My sweet teammate, Felicia, is having surgery in the morning to removed a screw from her foot. Felicia has quite a story from a fall in November. She's battled with a blood clot, her blood being too thick (and having to get injections in her stomach), which have caused the surgery to be delayed until, Lord-willing, tomorrow.
Felicia said on her blog today:
I dread being awake during the surgery, and I really dread the IV being "hammered" (or so it felt) in the top of my hand. Pray for the following items, PLEASE:
- gentleness from staff (IV, etc.)
- peace before, during, and after the surgery
- the surgeon (Dr. Suarez) and staff at Clinica San Felipe for the surgery, & doctors (cardiologists Dr. Talledo and Dr. De La Pena) at Clinica Anglo Americana for continued treatment of my clot
- the clot to dissolve safely
- rapid healing of her leg/ankle/foot
- strength and stability in learning to walk again
Felicia has to be at the hospital at 7:15 (EST) tomorrow morning. Thank you so much for your prayers for her through surgery and recovery.
