Subject: Prayers are requested for Marc Remijn from the Netherlands, whose surgery is today!!
Dear International Adhesions Society members and friends, Marc Remijn (marc@mirage.demon.nl) from the Netherlands is scheduled to have surgery today, August 13th, at the Klinikum Duisburg at Duisburg, Germany. Dr. Matthias Korell, a very skilled and experienced laparoscopic surgeon will be performing Marc's surgery.
With God's presence, your prayers and and Dr. Korell as his surgeon, Marc will be able to enjoy a much better quality of life. Please remember him in your prayers.
When Anne Hayashi (California), Laura Newman (Maryland), Mary Pomroy (Alberta, Canada) and I (Minnesota) had our adhesiolysis procedures on November 7, 2000 at the Klinikum Duisburg - with Dr. Korell as our surgeon - we had the privilege of meeting Marc. He had made a special trip to Duisburg to talk to Dr. Korell and Beverly Doucette (Wisconsin) about a possible adhesiolysis procedure.
Anne (with Masa, her husband), Mary, Beverly, Paul Lewis (Florida) and, I (with my husband, Don), took a train to Ghent, Belgium where we were met by Jan and Sylvie Verheyden - and their 2 year old daughter, Sarah - from Belgium. Marc met us at Ghent and he spent the entire day with us as the Verheyden's took us on a tour of the city of Ghent, where we actually walked through and viewed the interior of an historic castle. This was a wonderful international experience for all of us -- one of the highlights of our trip to Europe!!
Now that Marc is having his surgey today, we actually know who Marc is! In behalf of those I have mentioned above, I am sure that they too want to send Marc best wishes for success with his surgery!!
