August 6, 2009

Gene had another debriding procedure done on his pressure wound this afternoon. During the procedure his respiration pressure had to be raised to 15. They will begin lowering the pressure as soon as possible.

Dr. Bryce explained the procedure to Emily and seemed to think that it looked as though it may be quite possible that the wound is now in shape to begin healing. In a day or two, if possible, they will put a specialized draining bandage on the wound that will help with the healing process.

Prayer requests
Please pray for this latest debriding procedure to help Gene's body heal his pressure wound. Pray that his respiration continues to grow stronger. Pray for him to have peace of mind and the courage to face the next steps in his healing. Emily is very tired; pray for her to have strength and to be restored.
