Praise the Lord for the surgeon at OHSU in Portland, Oregon, felt the kidney transplant for Robert went well. Thank you so much for your prayers during this LONG day for us. Both Robert and Wichit, our son-in-law are responding well. The kidney has begun to work. Their rooms are almost side by side (Wichit is in room 4A 30 and I believe that Robert is in 4A 28) Staying with Wichit this evening is our daughter Bobbie Jo, and with Robert is our son, Michael who is a physician.
We went to the hospital to check in this morning at 6 a.m. but it wasn’t until almost 1 p.m. that Robert was finally taken to the theatre. His surgery lasted until around 7 p.m. and than he was brought to his room around 9 p.m.
Thanks so much for the MANY MANY prayers that were being said for both of them. I shall now go to bed but hopefully can get to the 100 plus e-mails very soon in the next day or two that are waiting for me to respond to. If yours is one of them, sorry for the delay.
Thanks for continuing to remember these men in your prayers during this week. Wichit will be able to check out of the hospital probably in 3 to 4 days, and Robert in 5 to 7 days.
We shall keep in touch. Please pass this message on to others that you know that might appreciate receiving this wonderful news – answers to our many prayers.
NOTE: Robert Robinson is the special assistant to the president of SUD, the Indian division of Seventh-day Adventists. He has purchased more 1858 Great Controversy books from me than anyone else in the world. He asked me at the GC Session to lead at a new school he is developing in the Sunderbans, but i turned the offer down. He has had diabetic problems for a long time, and his kidneys were going, as you can probably tell by the skin color in the pics you can see on this blog. May God heal him so he can quickly be back to spreading the good news of the 3 Angels’ Messages in India soon 🙂
