Can I have prayers?

Oh, JoAnn! Of course!

Oh my gosh, of course JoAnn. Sending up lots of prayers for a successful surgery for your dear grandson and a future life free of seizures. Good luck and Godspeed, my friend.

Dear "JoAnn29,"

Yes, I will pray for your grandson as well as wisdom and guidance for the surgeon and surgical team. I pray the result of the surgery will be a cure.

Also, I will pray for you and your family to have the strength and peace as you await the time he is in surgery. I know this is a very stressful and anxious time for you all.

Joining the Circle of Prayer surrounding your grandson.

All of my best wishes and good thoughts are with you for him. I hope you will update us. I hear really really good things about these surgeries.

I am sending up prayers for your grandson as well as for you throughout the week. Please let us know about your grandson's progress if you feel comfortable doing so. I am so sorry your grandson is going through this. I pray he can experience an easier life soon. Rebecca

Brain surgery has evolved so much over the last 20 years and they can do so much more now with greater accuracy and results, but I'm sure just the idea is still scary! May he be granted a complete recovery JoAnn🤞

Sending you and your grandson thoughts of light and healing.

May The Lord God Almighty guide the surgeon's hands and give a complete healing to your grandson.

Hugs grandma!

My prayers are with you and your family. I work in a Neuro ICU,, things have come along way and I am hopeful for you all

I'm praying for a successful surgery and healing for your grandson. My husband developed seizures(grand mal) after he had his massive stroke in 1996, so I know how scary those can be. It took his neurologist many years and many different drugs before he was able to keep them under control. God bless you.

I actually put this under questions. My post always seem to go to discussions.

Thank you all. Today Gson had holes drilled in his head to put electrodes on the brain. He has been taken off meds and they are waiting for a seizure to map the brain. If all goes to plan, his surgery will be on Wed. He was in postop when my daughter left. Will be in ICU about 9pm. She couldn't stay. Hospital is in a city and u don't want to be in that area after dark.

JoAnn, I will keep your grandson in my prayers.

Joann, thanks for the update. I am so hopeful for this to help. Will be so anxious to hear. He has lots of good thoughts on his side.

Prayers for your grandson, for healing and recovery

Thank you for the update! Prayers for success tomorrow.

Best wishes to your grandson for his surgery and for a speedy and full recovery.

JoAnn, your grandson ever in my loving thoughts. The "waiting room" is the worst room in the house. Let him know that tomorrow night will be here before we know it and that this will be over. So hopeful for him. Holding you in a huge hug. Al.

Alva, actually they don't allow you passed the front lobby. And believe me those chairs were not made to sit on for hours. They got there about 9am and R left about 4pm. Its a 45 min drive from the hospital. She called to see what youngest son wanted at MDs. When she got to my house, she had his dinner but not hers. She said she ate it from MDs to my house which is about 10 min. She was so hungry, guess she wasn't allowed to use the cafeteria. No, don't want to go out of the hospital. Why is it hospitals in cities are in the worst part of the town?

Thanks all for the prayers. Please keep them coming. He may have a long road ahead.

I had surgery yesterday & DH was allowed in with me every step of the way, except into the OR itself. He was in the hospital overnight a few weeks ago (nothing serious on either end) and I was allowed in with him every step of the way (a different hospital) also. He was allowed to have one guest visit in his room at any given time, same while in the ER. We're in Denver Colorado. The restrictions here are quite lenient compared to elsewhere in the country, and even within certain hospitals state wide. My DIL is pregnant, for instance, and my son isn't allowed in to her OB/GYN visits with her, which irritates me and I'd make a stink about it if it were me. He can go in with her to the gender reveal in a couple weeks but we already know it's a girl b/c I did the infamous Pin Test which NEVER lies!! LOL.

Still sending prayers and keeping your GS in my thoughts daily.
