I don't usually post things like this, but have a family friend needing some prayers. What his mom just sent me.
"Shane is out of surgery, it took about 6 hours. I was only going to post that he did well and was hanging in there. BUt, after giving it some thought, you all have been with me from the beginning, you have given been great comfort being able late at night to write some of these posts. I have spent the last thirty minutes crying and sick, both Amber and I. i will tell you all what was told to us by
his surgeon. He said that in all his 15 years as a surgeon he had never seen burns this bad or anyone live this long from their severity, that Shane has to have such a strong will to have made it this far. That the surgery involved only one leg and the other, if things go well to be done Sunday. That all the skin down past the fat, from his ankle to his thigh had to be removed and a part of his muscle in his thigh . He said he doesn't usually say a prayer with the family but asked if he could, said a prayer and cried with us. He said everything is hour by hour.I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to post something so devastating but was given permission by Amber and I know God has a Plan because this has been almost more than our human frailty is able to bear. THank you and please keep praying that Gods will be done, that Shanes suffering and for his family!"
He was in tank explosion week or so ago. My thoughts and prayers on his tonight.
