Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. –Philippians 4:6

In the tender compassion of our God, the dawn shall break upon us, to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Hi friends, colleagues, and prayer partners: I’m having that outpatient eye surgery at 8 am ET tomorrow, and would sure love your prayers for not only the procedure itself but – just as important – a successful recovery during my eye heals properly and with NO PAIN.
As many of you know, my eye injury in January healed but it didn’t quite heal right. If we don’t fix it, it will risk tearing the cornea again and again. (Essentially, the top layer of the cornea isn’t sticking to the other layers, and a couple of times overnight it stuck to my eyelid … so when I opened my eyes in the morning it took the top layer of the cornea with it. ‘Ouch’ doesn’t even begin to cover it. I can’t risk that happening in a hotel somewhere far from medical help, or right before I’m supposed to speak.)
Tomorrow morning the doctor (a cornea specialist) will scrape off the top layer of my cornea again, so it will heal properly. I’ll have about a 3-5 day recovery, the first half of which I will not be able to open my eyes and will be essentially blind. (Quite the unique experience!) As I have told some of you before (someone made a crack about “only Shaunti would know the statistics on this!”) 97% of the time this procedure is successful and the problem never recurs! Yay! But it is also usually very painful (just like the original injury) so I’ve battled with a wee bit of fear. At this point, though, I’m just SO grateful for the miracle of modern medicine… and the fact that God hears our prayers. I’m trusting His work the next few days, and for this to be all over and done with very soon!
I’d sure appreciate your prayers these next few days, for a quick, successful, and pain-free recovery!
Thanks, friends!
