Ricie & Eryn Prayer Requests

We thank you for praying for us as we traveled to Jacksonville, Florida for Ricie’s procedure at the Mayo Clinic. Unfortunately, this did not help her pain like everybody had hoped it would, so we are not going to pursue this particular method of treatment. But, the doctor saw firsthand how she suffers when that pain hits her, he has not given up on her, and he seems like he really wants to help her. He wants us to return for a follow up appointment with him where he can give her a thorough examination in hopes of finding some sort of solution for her. Of course it was disappointing that this first attempt didn’t pan out, but our family has the attitude that God may have something even better in mind for my mom. Please continue to pray about this and for healing in all areas of her body. We do praise The Lord that she had great endurance on this trip, a fine appetite for fresh Florida seafood, God gave us safe travels, and we had fun.

I had a routine cardiology appointment and heart echo this week. It’s been 6-years since my open heart surgery and aortic valve replacement, and The Lord brought me through that with flying colors. No complaints here looking back on that experience! I have been feeling fabulous physically, so I was rattled when the doctor told me that he saw something flickering near my mechanical aortic valve. He wants to investigate, so he immediately ordered blood work/cultures, and he wants me to have further imaging next week (possibly running a camera down my throat, although I’m praying we can get by with a CT). My doctor said it may be a clot that they could dissolve with more Coumadin blood thinner, or it may be an infection….. We are hopeful and keeping a positive outlook, but if it were to be the worst case, I would have to have another open heart surgery.

My beloved friends, y’all know how I am. I’m just laying it all out there so y’all will pray strongly for us. God continues to be so faithful and so good! Our trust is in Jesus. We love y’all, we thank y’all, and I’ll keep you posted.

P.S… After everything that Mom & I have been through these past 6-years, it is no joke when we say, “Praise God, we made the pilgrimage to Buc-ee’s!” This photo was taken on Tuesday, December 9th, 2025 in Brunswick, GA.
