My great big 14-year-old man-child is sick. I am giving you a very brief update, since I came home to shower and sleep, just briefly.
We rushed Michael to the emergency room Saturday evening, and found that his apendix had ruptured.
He is a total stud. Who could stand so much pain without crumbling?
Yesterday morning he had surgery to remive the offending organ. The infection was wide-spread, and included such malignant horrors as gangrene. In my baby.
My Mother is at the hospital with him now. I simply had to sleeep; I'd been up for 41 hours. Can you imagine? I managed a couple of cat-naps during that time, but who can sleep under those circumstances?
Please pray, if you are a praying sort. He is certainly not 'out of the woods.'
I am going back in moments, and will likely be there for most of the next week or ten days. That's if he doesn't get worse.
Pray.

Oh Kelly - how scary! I will be praying and waiting for an update...
Are you being inundated with calls? I was going to call this morning and then figured that you probably would like a little peace and quiet. But if you're bored spitless at the hospital waiting for M to come to, then I'd be more than happy to talk your ear off!
Praying for you and yours, Kelly, for God's healing touch, and peace for all of you!
Kelly,
I am a good friend of Kevin's. I have your pray request out to all of the believers I know. Praying for him all day, and all night. Hang in there. Get some rest you won't be any good to him when he comes home if you are too tired.
Carol
