Christopher Sparkman , the security guard most grievously injured when a suicidal gunman went on a rampage at a FedEx facility in Cobb County two years ago, faces surgery #49 soon.

His wife Jamie Lynn Sparkman, who has kept supporters apprised of updates, posted the information with a mix of weariness and optimism in her words.

Chris' poor quality of life has become a factor in determining the next surgery. We are asking for prayers for the doctors to use discernment and experience when deciding the timing of the 49th surgery, the one we believe God will use to give Chris his life back. 

This surgery will be victorious. We are believing that with all that we have left in us.

"You have circled this mountain long enough. Now turn north. (Duet. 2:3)

Thank you,

Jamie Lynn"
