Pre-Surgery Day

(JaNece editor) Dad was put on the 7th floor at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center (the Oncology floor). They drained the fluid from his lungs and had to wait for the surgery until an OR became available. I talked with Pat and he felt that Dad needed a blessing right away. We called Jared to meet up with us and arranged for Lecia to watch the kids so we could go see him. Pat anointed and Jared gave the blessing. It was a very beautiful blessing. He said that Dad would recover from the surgery quickly and have strength and energy. He blessed him that he could feel the love of others around him and that he could express himself to others. He blessed him with peace and comfort and that the surgery would be successful. We stayed for a little while and left to let Dad rest. He was in good spirits and very positive.
