Tina I know how nervous you are I could see it yours eyes today when you visted me today. I will be there for you during surgery and stay with you the night after. I want you to keep your head up and be strong you will soon be on the other side feeling as good as I do. Soon we will be working out together and having a grand time trading clothes. I LOVE YOU!! God Bless you. You Will be in my prayers. and this is a special prayer from my sister Jackie.
MY PRAYER
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my fat He'll keep.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
Please let my surgeon cut with skill
So I may make it over the hill.
With Your hands I know You'll guide
And help me reach the other side.
This fat is what I pray You'll keep
so in the future I may sleep,
on my stomach or on my back
and not to die of a heart attack.
Please listen Dear Lord to my prayer.
Only You can take me there,
to where I can walk without pain,
to where I may feel whole again.
I pray this gift to me You give
so that I a little longer may live,
to see my children grow and play
and help them through another day.
To watch grand children I may never have known,
Only You can make this so.
Now I'll sleep, knowing no harm,
I'll slumber in Your loving arms.
Your gentle hand will touch my face
to let me know I've won the race.
I'll thank You now for helping me there,
Dear Lord Your the answer to all lifes prayers.
