Well, by the time you read this, Josh and I will be in our respective operating rooms. I have schedule this blog post at 5:45 AM when we check in.
As I write this, I’ve got to tell you I’m that I’m scared. I’m not afraid of the outcome. I feel pretty comfortable about it. I’m scared of the process. We have thousands of people praying for us. I have no fear that Josh and I will be preserved. Actually, we were preserved years ago and a rest in the hands of our Father no matter what.
I believe we will both come through it well. I’m at peace with the surgery and that’s weird for me. I know there is a battle ahead but I am determined to push and fight to get well.
Pray for surgeons, pray for the machinery and pray for a circle of angels around our beds.
Jesus holds us. He loves you like crazy!

Scott,
I have not been able to post for some reason, but I want you to know that I have followed every word of your postings and have been praying for you and in my heart walking through this with you and your family. Ken and I prayed for you yesterday during the Sunday meeting at Missio Dei church. I am sure those prayers went up in other places, too. My heart and my prayers are with you and Josh today. May this bring the healing that you, and we all, long for in your body and may Josh recover quickly also and thrive. God bless you both and hold you in his hands today. Linda Jones
My thoughts are you both will come through this just fine and there is safety in PRAYERS … May your journey now begin with the HEALING and God will help you both through this …
