Beautiful Day in Charleston.....August 17 Update by Charlie

Debbie has had a blessed night....alert, restful, happy and with good news. Dr Varma spoke with her early last evening (Tues) and told her she is doing exceptionally well and her shunt surgery will be done early Thursday morning, the 18th. She was happy and talkative with him and also had great phone conversations with our "sister" Jenny Yeary in TN and also her Dad. In the middle of her late dinner, Deb's door opened and our pastor, Bro. Scott Johnson and wife, Kelly were standing there. What a blessing for them to visit and pray with Debbie before this long awaited last surgery. Debbie really enjoyed their visit and slept very well after wearing herself out talking with them. Deb's surgery is planned for early tomorrow so thank you for all your prayers that it is a complete success with a speedy recovery. The trach will be removed next and we will soon be looking northward for our return to Tennessee. Praises to our Lord Jesus!
