Heart Cath!

Hi all,

We’d like to share a prayer request with you all for our family – this coming week, we will be back at the hospital for Nate to get another heart catheterization procedure. This is where he undergoes anesthesia and they put a camera into his heart to take pictures of measurements of what is going on. It’s a relatively minor procedure and we’ve gone through it a couple times already, but if you could please pray:

1. For a smooth procedure and recovery

2. Nate’s lung pressures to have decreased (this is why we have been postponing heart surgery).

3. For extremely good health for our whole family (usually before surgery, there are pre-op labs and if there’s even a hint of a virus or anything in the blood, they won’t proceed)

4. For Nate to have a good hospital stay, and also that the nurses will only need to poke him ONCE to find an IV. The IV is always the most traumatic for him and they have to poke him a lot. So please pray they get it the first time.

5. For strength emotionally, mentally, and physically for Joe and I during our hospital stay

Thank you all for praying!!
