Your Thoughts and Prayers (Updated & Bumped)

While I normally don't make requests like these, I feel now is a good time to start. Tomorrow, my girlfriend Beth will be undergoing Chiari decompression surgery to treat what is called a Chiari malformation. Unfortunately, I can't be with her in Pennsylvania (where she'll be having the surgery) but I will be taking some time off work (and blogging) soon after she gets back to help out during her recovery.

Anyways, please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. You are welcome to leave a note here and I will pass it along to her. Please leave political comments out of this thread. Thanks.

UPDATE, Wednesday 7/19/06 2:52 PM ET: I just got word that Beth is now out of surgery and it went very well. Thank you all who kept her in your thoughts and prayers.

UPDATE, Wednesday 7/19/06 7:48 PM ET: I'm happy to report that Beth called me about an hour and half ago to tell me how's she's doing. Despite being in a little pain from the surgery, she's doing well.

I will pray, that God's hands will be all around her, in comfort and in healing.

Posted by: Maewynia [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 07:48 AM

God bless her. Sometimes during the course of huge events, we forget the individual battles fought daily by folks all around the world.

Again, prayers for her from our family in Phoenix.

Posted by: TiminPhoenix at July 18, 2006 08:02 AM

Matt...I will also pray for your girlfriend, and for the doctors who take care of her.

Posted by: Macker [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 08:29 AM

Matt I hope and pray that the surgery will be a success and that she will be symptom free when this is all done.

Posted by: SBulka [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 09:01 AM

Matt,

I hope everything goes well!, and I know it will!, because everything is possible through christ Jesus!!

Nothing heals like the power of prayer!

I wish your girlfriend Beth a successful surgery followed by a rapid recovery. She will be in my thoughts.

Posted by: Reverend Scaramonga [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 10:05 AM

Matt-

I'm not one for public prayer so I'll say I wish your girlfriend and you all the best through this trying time. May her operation be successful and she make a speedy recovery. I'm sure your help will be a great comfort to her.
All the best and may she be well and you be back soon,
Jeff

Posted by: Leftorium [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 10:15 AM

God bless her and you, Matt. May she pull through it ok and be all the better for it going forward.

Posted by: Bret Helm at July 18, 2006 10:44 AM

My prayers that all goes well and she recovers nicely.

Posted by: Big Dog at July 18, 2006 11:12 AM

Ditto. (I can't believe I said that)

We disagree on almost everything, but we can agree that the health and safety of our loved ones are paramount.

Prayers said for Beth!

Posted by: AFWIFE [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 01:11 PM

Matt, please tell Beth that prayers and optimism for her safe surgery and complete recovery are in my heart, as well.

Posted by: Almiranta [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 01:50 PM

Prayers from here for all involved. I have had prayer candles burning 24/7 for 3 years now, you are included. SW

Posted by: SEW at July 18, 2006 02:19 PM

Matt & Beth,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you both for a complete recovery.

Posted by: Exekiel Eigeldinger at July 18, 2006 02:33 PM

Best wishes for her recovery.
-Matt from GA

Beth, I have said a prayer to God for your complete healing. God bless you! God bless, Matt!

Best wishes Matt for your girlfriend's successful
surgery and recovery. I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. Jo

Posted by: Jo [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 08:19 PM

Matt, sorry I missed this thread earlier. Beth will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hope she has a speedy and successful recovery.

Posted by: Retired Spook [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 18, 2006 09:37 PM

Matt, any word on her progress?

Posted by: Bret Helm at July 18, 2006 10:20 PM

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Posted by: Scott at July 19, 2006 12:17 AM

Matt

My prayers and thoughts are with Beth and you. Beth, God bles you and may God heal you and may God's hands be with the doctors.

Posted by: B.Poster [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 01:03 AM

I apoligize that I'm late with my entry. As a nurse I am familiar with Chiari and the advancements are astounding. I have every belief that Beth will do fine and soon be on the road to a quick and comfortable recovery. God Bless, Mary

Posted by: mary s [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 02:21 PM

Matt,

Beth is in our prayers, and i hope that she gets better. As my mother mentioned above, I trust that. Beth will do fine, and she'll have a speedy recovery

Posted by: RushBaby [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 03:02 PM

So good to hear Beth did well, prayers that you see her soon and she has a speedy recovery. God Bless, Mary

Posted by: mary s [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 03:32 PM

Good for her, Matt. I will keep her in my prayers.

Posted by: Ricorun [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 03:54 PM

Glad to hear the surgery went well. Best wishes to Beth for a speedy recovery! God bless!

Posted by: Freedom1 [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 04:27 PM

I hope she recovers well

By the way, why don't we get these extra-topic posts about praying for the dead and wounded in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon etc?

Posted by: Third Eye Open [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 04:30 PM

Matt, I am glad the surgery went well. I pray that she continues to do well and recovers quickly.

TEO - please stay on topic here. This is about a personal trial, not the place for your vitrolic tantrums.

Posted by: kjstrouble [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 04:36 PM

Many prayers for you, the doctors, and foremost, your beloved Beth.

TEO was way out of order with his comment. If he had any sense, he would realize that our nation's finest are always in our prayers.

Posted by: LFFGF SGSPN NE... [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 04:43 PM

Kjs and whatever the hell your name is,

My friend Humza's aunt was one of those un-counted deaths in Afghanistan, so this IS about a personal trial.

I was refering to the dead and wounded civilians in other countries, not our military, they aren't lacking for cheerleaders around here.

Good luck on the recovery, either way.

Posted by: Third Eye Open [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 04:56 PM

Great! to hear beth came through the surgery!.

I will continue to pray for her continuing recovery!

From the bottom of my heart!!

May God bless beth and you! and may He continue His watch care of protection over you!!

I appreciate you!!, for standing for truth!!

Jeremiah


Posted by: Jeremiah [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 05:38 PM

Matt, it's great to hear that Beth is doing well; we'll continue to pray for her and you on this end.

TEO, we Christians offer our prayers for everyone, even our enemies, you moron.

We pray for you, TEO. We pray that you find a blog more to your liking and intellectual level. I hear Sesame Street has a blog; why don't you check it out? Barney and axis have found a home there.

Sorry, Matt, but jerks deserve jerk treatment. Once again, all the best to you and Beth.

keeferMD,

Go with God(s)

Posted by: Third Eye Open [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 05:47 PM

Let me put our differences in politics aside and give you my best wishes and hopes for a full recovery for your girlfriend. When it comes down to it those are the things that really matter!

Posted by: kritter at July 19, 2006 06:49 PM

Great news, Matt; your beloved Beth is out of surgery and doing well. Glad to hear it.

keefer, I think TEO is stalking you. Be careful, friend...

Posted by: LFFGF SGSPN NE... [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 19, 2006 07:08 PM

My prayers are with Beth! Sorry, didn't have time to comment earlier, but I did have time to pray! God Bless!
