We found out today that Stephen's mom (Lorene Parris) had eye surgery yesterday. She has been receiving injections in her eye for macular degeneration and evidently she got an infection as a result of one of the shots. Minor eye infections are treated with eye drops, but her doctor felt that she needed a vitrectomy in order to clear out all of the infection and to reduce the chance of vision loss.
Please pray that her vision will not be negatively impacted by the infection and/or the surgery and that her recovery will be easy and without complications, as, in general, her health is fragile. This operation was on her "good eye," so any loss of vision will obviously cause additional problems for her and for Stephen's dad who is her caregiver.
Thank you for lifting her up in prayer.
I will add her to my prayer list. God bless you guys for all you do. Love ya. - Karen Monsma
