Fourth Update (2/27/09) - 5:02 PM

Here's the fourth update!

I just spoke with the surgeons. Cindy has pulled through the surgery very well. Everything went according to plan. They are preparing to close her up. Will take another hour to hour and a half. She will be in ICU overnight. Lots of pain medication over the weekend.
Thank you all for faithfully praying Cindy through today. The Lord was clearly with her and the surgical team.
Now we turn our attention to Monday's surgery. Biggest prayer requests for Monday are for a (1) complete and successful resection of the tumor with clear margins; (2) protection of the kidney, colon, and especially the femoral nerve; (3) successful reconstruction of L2 vertebral section.
Will keep you all posted.

"For our present troubles are quite small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever. So we don't look at the troubles we can see right now, rather we look forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last forever."
II Cor. 4:17-18 (NLT)
