My wife, and mother to our 2 boys, Jaime Agee, is in need of immediate surgery and we do not have the funds to cash pay the orthopedic surgeon. They need to realign the breaks and install plates before it heals back crooked. Here is Jaime's story:
On Feb 1st, we were in Dripping Springs TX for the 1st pep rally of the Southern Border Convoy (Take Our Border Back). After the event was over I accidentally tripped over a large log in the dark. I caught myself with my left arm. When I rolled over I pretty much knew by looking at my dangling hand that I'd broken my wrist. Thankfully I spotted a guy walking a dog that came to my rescue to help me up. Sweet guy, Vinny, was our lead pilot car for the convoy. ;) He quickly walked me to Robert & our other friends. Andrew Mullinex immediately laid hands on me & prayed. They all got me sat down so that Ret LTC Pete Chambers could have a look. He put a splint on me & crafted an awesome sling out of my flag scarf. (Coolest one I've seen lol) Then he sent me off to the ER.
At the ER the doctor there said it was definitely broke & that I would probably need surgery. He told me to go that next day. I laughed and told him that I did not have time for that, as we were supposed to be leading a convoy in about 5hrs to Quemado, TX. His response was okay, just try to get it done within 7 days befofre it heals back crooked. He showed us that it broke in two places, horizontal and vertically creating a cross. We thought that was pretty interesting. Then the nurse wheeled me down to the other room. In the 10ft hallway there were only two things hanging on the wall that really spoke to us. Two signs that God was in this, with us, no matter the outcome. First painting was of Noah's Ark & the other was of the Lion of Judah. The Lord has used these two very things to speak to us many times in the last 3 years. I had received a message only days before leaving for this convoy regarding the lion. Thankful for how God shows up to bring us comfort during situations like this.
So we went on our way with the convoy as planned. The entire event was amazing, Holy Spirit fire was moving all day, there was prayer for our country, the children, the nation of TX and for the immigrants. People were baptized and delivered. We had REVIVAL! It was INCREDIBLE!
During the weekend my pain level stayed very manageable but I think I just didn't notice it because I was busy & distracted. Now that I am home finally, the pain is getting a lot more intense. I believe I can feel the actual parts of the break.
Today I was able to see a orthopedic surgeon nearby. He explained the break in detail and it quite worse than maybe we thought. The Dr said that he could get me in pretty quickly to do the surgery but we would need to have the payment upfront to get it scheduled. Following the surgery will be weeks of rehab to make sure the movement is brought back in this delicate part of my arm.
We however do not have these kinds of funds available right now. We could really use the help, if you are able. We know the Lord will make a way & that Romans 8:28 will play out somehow.
Thank you in advance and if you aren't able to help financially, please know that prayers are highly cherished & valuable right now, too.
God Bless & Shalom,
Robert & Jaimé Agee
