ON TO SURGERY
A quick update on Lomi. The CT scan showed that the growth was indeed the kind of tumor the doctor suspected, but it is totally encapsulated and has not invaded any other organs or bone! It should be 100% operable. We praise God for that and thank everyone who is praying.
Lomi needs to see a pediatrician tomorrow to be cleared for surgery, so our partner Rich will be taking him for that appointment (both the pediatrician and the surgeon go to our church here in Puerto).
The way things work here in the Philippines is that Lomi will need to have blood donated in advance, since the hospitals do not stock it. Rich is O+, so we only need to find one more donor to match Lomi’s blood type and we should be good to go.
Please continue to pray for little Lomi and his parents Malmagan and Salmida.
SO PLEASE PRAY WITH US…
- for Lomi and his family
- wisdom for the doctors
- safe, successful surgery
- for us as we help them
- as we also continue the translation work
Reaching Palawanos together with you,
