James Skinner surgery

Post by DivinMercy » Tue Jun 12, 2007 4:54 am

Last time I talked to James, his surgery was still scheduled for June 14th.
Assuming this is a go, just wanted to start a thread of encouragement for him so he knows how many people are thinking of him/praying for him. I hope this is OK with him...he did publicly post the date.

James, you will be in my thoughts and prayers all day Thursday. Please update as to your condition when you feel able.

God Bless you....Mary

James, like a lot of folks across the globe, I've followed your saga wishing there was something I say or do that would help. Early on I thought about tea tree oil but someone else mentioned it and your condition seemed to advance well past such home remedies. I asked some doctor friends about it. They took an interest, did a little research, and came up with ideas similar to those posted by "Dr. Bandage" which apparently did not fit. So I'm left with good wishes, hope, and prayers to offer. Good luck.

Chris
