Journal entry by Lynn Johnson —
We can’t believe that this Easter Sunday is 1 year from the weekend Thomas was released from the hospital. Thomas has had many surgeries over this past year. He had surgery last Thursday to repair some issues on his right hand. His hand surgeon feels like the surgery was a success. It’s challenging because he is right handed and he’s trying to finish the spring semester of his junior year. He is scheduled to have his 7th laser surgery this coming Friday. We already had a trip planned with Logan for his Spring Break that we could not cancel but Thomas really wants to do this surgery. He has assured us that 3 of his best friends are going to be with him at the hospital and throughout the weekend. Please pray that everything goes smoothly for Thomas. He has other plastic surgeries coming up in the next few months. His recovery will be a long process. Thomas is so happy that he got an engineering internship in Charleston this summer. We are so thankful he was able to be in church today with Timmy Sullivan and Aiden Williams. He’s come so far over this past year! Thank you all for continuing to keep Thomas in your thoughts and prayers.
