We wanted to send a quick update out and ask for your prayers for Jason this Thursday, May 1 please.
He will be undergoing a new procedure where they will be using a smaller stent and sewing it to his esophagus wall. His Dr. hopes that this will help Jason's esophagus heal in the correct shape (a circle vs oval) over time. If all goes well, they will check the status of the stent 1.5 to 2 months out from the procedure and then, depending on how Jason's esophagus wall is reacting to the stent, determine whether or not they can keep it in for a month or two longer.
One big positive with this procedure is that they can use a smaller stent than they have used in the past so Jason will hopefully not be in as much pain. Plus with the stitching, it should stay in place vs fall into his stomach.
If you can please pray for the following:
1. That this procedure is effective in helping the esophagus heal correctly and eliminating future stretchings.
2. For Jason to experience no pain or complications.
3. For God to open our eyes to how he wants to use us through this procedure and this hospital visit.
Many thanks!
With Much Love In Him,
Jas & Meg
