transplant

from the Nebraska friend while Gina and Mark are waiting for John to get out of surgery.

Yesterday morning they received a call saying that there were organs ready for John again. The surgery began at about 9:30pm last night. This morning things are still touch and go with little John. The new liver was not working and a second surgery is needed. His little body went into shock early this morning and he had lost 2 units of blood. Keep this little boy in your prayers. Pray that God's gracious will be done. May our Heavenly Father give the nurses and doctors wisdom while working on John. May He grant Gina and Mark peace and understanding.

Update from Gina per My daughter in Nebraska about 20 minutes ago..

This is from John's mom, "John is out of surgery. They were able to
cauterize over 50 small bleeds. His heart stopped for 30 seconds but
he's now doing better than before - they think his potass...ium got out of whack. This is going to be hour by hour and a way scary 24hrs with a scary wk to follow but the surgeon has a b...it of a smile. ...Please spread the word for us. Thanks so much for prayers. Love you allSee More
