WALLACE YORK - MONDAY EVENING UPDATE
Hershael posted at 8:40pm:
Dad had to be put back on ventilator. A little setback, but heart is strong, brain function normal. They will keep him sedated a day or two.
Pray for Dad's lungs to clear, kidneys to function, body to strengthen. Recovery might take a bit longer, but we are cautiously optimistic.

WALLACE YORK - POST SURGERY
Monday morning, 8.15 am, 6 April
Doris York called me last night from her home. Hershael and Tanya were staying at the hospital overnight with Wallace. She repeated that Wallace had come through the surgery and they had discovered a bleeding stomach ulcer. They debrided some of the contamination from his abdominal area. He is in ICU and on a ventilator. The surgeons have told them that he is 'not out of the woods' yet - that the next 24 hours will be critical.
Please continue to pray for his healing and recovery.

WALLACE YORK UPDATE
It is now 9:30 pm EDST, Sunday evening.
I got a call on my cell phone as I was leaving from church services tonight from a member who had already arrived home. He said that he accessed Hershael's Facebook page and that Hershael reported that Wallace had come through the surgery well - certainly much better than anticipated - and that he was much improved from his pre-surgery condition. I am not registered on Facebook, so I can't give you any more details than were related to me.
But, this certainly is good news - and we praise God. Continue to pray for his complete recovery.

URGENT PRAYER REQUEST - WALLACE YORK
Sunday afternoon, 2 pm edst, 5 April 2009
re: Wallace York
I am going to write as quickly as I can and get this online – but I started receiving phone calls on my way home from services this morning that an announcement had been made in Ashland Avenue Baptist Church that Wallace York was in the hospital in Madisonville and was in critical condition – life-threatening.
I just spoke with Doris York, who is in the ER with him. He has been sick for most of the week. Has been to the ER 4 times already before this morning. He has been suffering from an obstructed bowel. They have performed several enemas of different kinds. This morning, he began to vomit a dark substance. They don’t know whether it’s dried blood or what. They suspect he has a perforated colon and infection may be setting into his abdominal area.
He has also contracted pneumonia from the inactivity of the past several days, and his kidneys are shutting down.
They are preparing the operating room as quickly as they can to perform the emergency surgery to try to determine what his condition is. There are many risks. He may not survive the surgery. But, he is in God’s hands. Doris is understandably very shaken up, but they are committing themselves into the care of the Father’s wisdom and love.
Please pray for Brother Wallace and Doris – and their family – and for the surgeons who will be performing the surgery.
To you fellow directors of BFM – Wallace specifically told Doris to call the Directors of BFM and ask us to pray for him. Wallace loves us – and we love him.
