Sandy Barrett, who works with Tom Avey in the Fellowship Coordinator’s office, reports having talked with Tom’s wife, Sandi, in California at about 3:30 p.m. Monday, Winona Lake, IN, time.
The word is that Tom is now out of ICU after his quadruple bypass operation, has been “unhooked from all machines,” and has begun eating.
He will remain in the hospital for several more days, and will be confined to the area for several more, before being cleared to return to Indiana for recuperation.
The Aveys are grateful to all for their prayers, and are praising the Lord for successful surgery and early positive signs of recovery.
