Florida Update

Hi everyone! The Everett family is gathered around our stricken brother Tom in Florida. Patti is doing well in Dallas and is blessed to have friends and family around to keep her company while I'm away. This is a very difficult time and we are both lonely for each other.

Please continue to pray for Tom. Monday he will undergo surgery that will be very serious. He has almost complete blockage of one lung and 70% of the other. He has been on dialysis four straight days and, overall, is very weak. The surgery is to try and determine what exactly is going on. They will biopsy the lungs, liver and kidneys. The risks of this surgery will be very high as they will also try to clean out his lungs so he can breathe. There is a very good chance he will be on a ventilator for some period of time after the surgery. Pray also for an opportunity to share the love of Christ and for an open heart.

Forever in Him,

Mike
