Well I am sure most of you have heard about the terrible Typhoons in the Philippines. Our Dear Missionary son, Brett, has been right in the middle of it all. His area he is currently serving in was not hit as bad, but he has been walking in waste deep water. His first area and Chapel he attended was completely under water, which sadened him. But he has remained safe, and cheerful, until....he became sick with a bad pain in his right side. Yes....Elder Loveless needed his appendix out. They flew him to Manilla and put him in the hospital, they performed tests to make sure that was the problem, and after 14 hours there, they decided to do the surgery, and he is now recovering . We were notified when he entered the hospital, and was able to talk with him, and he remains cheerful, but bummed this happened to him.
I have been worried and sad I couldn't be at his side, but have had a peacefulness with me the whole time. I knew he would be alright, but the MOMMY in me still worries. We are hoping he will get out of hospital in a day or so, then he goes to a Missionary recovery center, which is a home with a Missionary couple there to take care of him and help him regain his strength and get ready to do missionary work again. Prayers for him will be appreciated!
The Lord works in mysterious ways, but I am Grateful for this gospel in our lives, and the willingness of our Sweet Son, Brett, to continue to Serve the Lord in the Philippines. He loves it and the people very much, and we honor him at this time.
