Please pray for Courtney. She has been having problems with her bowels for about 3 weeks now. She has been unable to have a bowel movement without taking laxatives. But this past weekend, even the laxatives weren’t doing anything. She had to leave the church service yesterday to go in the bathroom and throw up. This morning, her abdomen was very distended and hard. I called the GI specialist she is seeing and they had me bring her in immediately. He was very concerned with how big her belly was, and sent her over to Mt. Carmel for an xray to check for a bowel obstruction. We will find out the results tomorrow. For now, she is on a liquid diet, and he had me give her a dose of Miralax and 2 Dulcolax tablets. So far, they have not worked. Please lift her up in your prayers.
