Wednesday.
SANDY BRUNDIGE, Tommy's sister, has ankle surgery scheduled for May 22. They will replace the bones in her ankle
injured in an automobile accident about 25 years ago with plastic.
TIFFANY BUICE has been taken to the gastroenterologist to see about acid reflux that is
making her sick every day. Sheila had a
doctor's appointment with her ENT to see about her sinuses again. Amber is still having numerous ear
infections.
CLYDE CARSON, former member here at South Cobb, has bone cancer and has been given 3 to
6 months to live. We must pray for
Clyde, Joan and Jeff at this time in their lives.
TOMMY GRIFFIN, Sheila Buice's uncle and former member at South Cobb, has had multiple strokes. Tests are being run, and at this time he is unable to work.
FAYE GRINDLEY, a former member of the Smyrna Church of Christ, is still having problems with her heart.
ASHLEY HULSEY went to Emory Hospital doctors Thursday due to her breathing problems. Let us pray that they find a solution to these problems.
GULLIAM NIXON is in room 373 at Cobb Hospital recuperating from an amputated
foot and breathing problems. Doctors continued to be concerned about his foot,
and unless it gets more oxygen, they will have to amputate some more of it -
possibly going up his leg.
JACKIE STUBBLEFIELD will have surgery on her lower back sometime around the first of June.
They are still considering neck surgery as well, but putting that off till a
later date.
DRAKE TIDWELL and TOMMY TIDWELL are suffering from bronchitis.
