Bradley Shipman

Sunday Eve. Bradley will have a catscan early Monday 
morning to verify what they think is happening, once 
verified, surgery will be Tuesday or Wednesday. Praise 
God that he didn't stay at Mercy in the private room, on 
the way to Ia city in the ambulance (special ambulance 
from the Ia city hospital came to pick him up) his stats 
bottomed out and we nearly lost him. Due to special 
training the crew had and the special equipment, they were 
able to save him and stabilize him. Unlikely to have 
turned out that way at Mercy. Ia City hospital staff are 
simply unbeleiveable. There cannot be staff anywhere with 
the commitment and compassion we see here. Please 
continue to pray for him as this surgery will tell the 
story as to what he will have to face in the months to 
come.

Bradley Shipman

Our family would like to ask all to pray for Bradley at noon today and throughout the afternoon and evening.  He will be having dye injected into his heart to determine the amount of blockage in his pulmonary artery.  If it is minimal, they will wait until his 5 month surgery to correct the problem.  However, if it is too large they will have to do a 'balloon' procedure to clear it out, which poses a moderate risk to him at his age.  Your prayers will be much appreciated.
