Prayers requested for a great friend of the forum

Whether the need is great or small, there is power in prayer, especially when God's people raise their voices together.

Prayers requested for a great friend of the forum

#1

Post by HighVelocity »

A couple of weeks ago, our friend Tom Clore (TomC) went to the VA hospital in Dallas seeking help for pain in his hip and he is still there. He was admitted and required surgery, which was successful and he was moved to the Transitional Care unit last night.

A mutual friend and I went and visited with Tom this morning. He is in good spirits and is receiving good care. Right now, it's estimated that he will remain in the TCU for approximately 3 weeks. I plan to visit with him again next week and will pass along prayers and well wishes for his comfort and speedy recovery.

I printed this entire post and took it with me this morning when my friend and I went to visit with Tom. He's recovering as expected but still has at least 2 weeks to go before they'll let him go home.

Tom says thank you all. I say, keep the prayers coming and I will print this out again and take next week.

Thanks again everyone.

Today I went to visit with Tom and found him to be in good spirits and being well taken care of. We had a good visit and I left him a W.E.B. Griffin novel to read, "The Hostage." That should keep him occupied for a day or two. He is most anxious to be released.

Tom,
Hope you are doing well, and your rehab is progressing as it should!
can't wait to see you out at your Saturday RealWorld matches again, hopefully soon.
FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.

Visited with Tom today in the hospital. He's had a pretty serious setback and will not be going home soon.
Please crank up the prayers because they are needed.
