Update on Chris...

Hey everybody,  Jason here.  Just got back from the hospital and logged in here to throw out a quick update.  He's doing well now after having surgery this morning to remove an infection from the wound on his back from his last surgery.  He got a staph infection and was in a great deal of pain for the last few days.  It seems that everything went smoothly, and they were able to remove all of the infection.

Keep him in prayer for the next few days though.  There is a *possibilty* that the infection got into his bloodstream.  They are testing him for that today,  most likely it'll be negative.  Also,  he'll probably be in the hospital for a couple more days so if you want to visit him, he's in CCU room 7 on the 3rd floor (above the ER).  Or you can call 682-7111 and have them connect you to CCU and then to Chris Stroud.

Let's all praise God for the amazing work that He's doing in Chris' life!  God will be faithful to see this good work He has begun through to completion!  Amen!

*EDIT*   UPDATE AS OF JUNE 26:

The doctors have just informed Chris that he might be staying at the hospital for up to TWO WEEKS.  The extended stay would be to insure that his wound heals under proper supervision and constant care  so it's not necessarily a bad thing, but lets' keep him in prayer and visit him when we can.
