Minor Surgery for the swelling

Bill called me, David (Judy's son in law, Ingrid's husband) a little bit ago and mentioned that Judy his having a small operation this afternoon to do some suction in her neck. The swelling has become enough of a concern that they are going to do something about this. A few years ago, Judy had something like this in her abdomen after a procedure and the swelling hematoma took what seemed like months to fully go away. So they are going to try to remove some of this hematoma in her neck this afternoon. I don't know all the details, it was a quick conversation with Bill. But it sounds like it is a minor procedure, but it will involve anasthesia and some sort of suctioning. Pray for this, if you would. This, I think, is Judy's biggest concern and source of frusteration right now. We'll update you more later this evening. David, for Bill and Ingrid.

Thanks for keeping us updated. We are happy to read about her progress. We will continue to pray and look forward to seeing her smiling face back home in Lynden.
