Hello, as some of you know my dad recently had to get sudden heart surgery, valve repair. He is at a Va hospital, and its gone from bad to worse many times I really wanted them to take him somehwere else but its the only one in that state.....
After the surgery he left the hospital, the meds they put him on lowered his blood pressure so badly they had to call a ambulance. Then he started to feel like he couldnt breath and had to return to the hospital.... Some how at the hospital he got E coli in his blood, and also bad infection where the tubes where placed. So much so they had to do cleaning surgerys to wash him out over and over he kept waking up from the surgeries screaming in agony..... Becuase of this they had to keep his bones apart so long that they no longer could heal togather like they were going to in the begining.... Finally after a month 3 days ago they were able to put him back togather with medal that would hold his chest togather and stich him up. Meanwhile the pain killers they have been putting him on has been destroying his appetite, because his wieght got so low so they put him on feeding tubes...They messed up with the feeding tubes and he got liquid in his lungs and his lung almost collapsed a couple days ago. Now he has somthing draining the liquid out of his lung.
My dady is 6.0 feet tall.... At this point he is so week he cant walk or even feed himself and he wieghs 125 pounds....The situation is pretty dire, and I really need urgent prayers... So many things have gone wrong, that after going through all of this I am pretty convinced we are under a lot of spiritual warfare.

I am sorry to hear of this and praying that the Lord brings him through these awful medical emergencies he is going through...poor man.

I had a repaired heart mitral valve, it’s a cage after surgery that holds our breast bones together.

I too lost a lot of weight after surgery, I think it’s to do with all the intravenous medication we were fed intravenously.

Liquid in his lungs through those feeding tubes....how awful as if he hasn’t been through enough already.

He will be extremely weak, not only after heart surgery, then he has all of these complications on top, he’s very much on my heart as are you, Praying that the Lord gives him the strength to fight all that he is enduring at this moment...In Jesus Name!.....Amen!

This is a Red Sea moment. Only God has the answer.

Father God,
We turn this situation over to you. We need you to step in and rescue Sparrow's Dad.
Please turn this situation around as only you can. Open closed doors, part the waters, whatever it takes.
AMEN

Yes thank you in Yashua name I agree. I absolutely agree its funny that was my exact prayer this morning before seeing this.

I am sorry to hear of this and praying that the Lord brings him through these awful medical emergencies he is going through...poor man.

Thank you very much I appreciate hearing your testimony, its interesting you went through that. I really appreciate your compassion and your prayers thank you.

Thank you yes, its very scary and sad as he actually came out of the surgery pretty well, he was walking around and everything then he left the hospital and it seemed like everything was good for a couple weeks... but then one thing after another. Now he is so week he cant walk or really eat on his own or even swallow very well its very scary to me and im really concerned...... And honestly it just feels so wrong as so many problems in the hospital made it worse for him.
Anyways I know God is Good, and I know He sees everything and I do believe He can do a miracle and He will get all the glory for it as it will take a miracle at this point.
I am blessed by your prayers thank you.

Blessings in Christ Jesus Sparrow. I have been paying attention to all of this. I join myself in agreement(If two or more...) with you and the others for intervention for your dad. You mentioned va. Is this up here or down there.? This is important as it relates to one thing after another. Be Blessed to night.

Sorry to hear this, surgery complications are a problem and should not happen. Praying that the Lord heal him as the doctors seem to be failing in different ways.

Thank you for your prayers, and for your intercession on his behalf I stand in agreement as well. Right now he is in Idaho right now at the VA hospital.

Yes for sure they shouldnt happen. They took the feeding tubes out today and now for some reason he cant swallow now its at the point he cant drink water very well. His weight is so low he looks like flesh and bones and for some reason he just doesnt want to even try to eat, I think he is under a lot of attack right now. Please be praying his throat be healed and that he will choose life and to eat. Somthing is really coming against him
Certaintly this has been the test of faith of my lifetime
