Dear family,

Pam and I are leaving momentarily to drive to Stanford in Palo Alto.
Skylar is scheduled to have surgery at 11AM tomorrow, Friday morning.

The surgery is intended to re-connect his severed colon, reversing the
temporary colostomy that he has struggled with for the last month or
more.

Please ask our Lord, the Great Physician, to touch and heal Skylar.
Ask Him to guide the doctor's hands and all the circumstances. I know
that He controls the position and placement of every atom, every electron,
every element of Skylar's body and so I trust Skylar to His hands.

Thank you for your continuing love and prayers on our and Skylar's behalf.

Love,

-Dann
