Wife Of Superstar Billy Graham Told To Prepare For The Worst
The health of WWE Hall of Famer Superstar Billy Graham has taken a turn for the worse with his wife being prepared for the worst by doctors.
Superstar Billy Graham was a huge star in the 1970s and into the 1980s thanks to his imposing figure. Graham has openly spoken about how steroids helped him along the way. In April 1977, Graham ended Bruno Sammartino’s long title reign to become the WWWF Champion before he lost the title to Bob Backlund in February 1978.
Taking to Facebook, Graham’s wife Valerie provided an update on his condition and said that doctors are trying to prepare her for the worst:
“The doctors are continuing to try and prepare me for the worst. And I continue to explain to them that Wayne and I are people of faith and that our God has the final say. I am not in denial about what’s happening to him or blind to what the medical reports say…I just know that the God I serve is greater than any infection and more powerful than any organ failure.
“Please pray specifically for his blood cultures to come back clear and for his blood pressure to stabilize. At this time they are providing support to prevent his pressure from plummeting and the fact that his cultures continue to be positive is one of the main reasons they are not very optimistic. They think he may have a heart infection but the test that would confirm that is too dangerous for him.
“All things are possible with God and there is power when believers come into agreement together. Prayer is incredibly powerful and we need all of your prayers. With my whole heart I give thanks to God for each of you and I am grateful beyond words for you all.“
Valerie then gave a further update where she confirmed that Graham will have to undergo surgery to clear out an infection:
“Prayer warriors …..new updateWayne will be having emergency surgery tomorrow. Still in ICU fighting the infection and organ failure. They did a nuclear test today that showed infection in the left hip and they said if we want to try and save his life they will have to go in and remove all of the old hardware and clean out the bone and surrounding tissue….it’s very extensive and you can imagine the risk involved. It will be sometime in the midafternoon. I see the hand of God in this and that’s where I’m putting my hope”
Everyone at TJRWrestling sends their best wishes to Superstar Billy Graham and hopes that he can make a full recovery.
