Donna is continuing to struggle today with her breathing and her oxygen saturations. Joel asked that we specifically pray that this will start to improve throughout the day. If not, there is talk of sending Donna back to the ICU this evening for a period of time so that they can more closely monitor and treat her respiratory status. We are asking that you pray specifically that she improves and can avoid a stay in ICU. Donna hated it there the last time.
On the good side of things, Donna's spirits are much brighter today despite feeling so poorly. Additionally, she continues to be able to eat and can even get up with assistance.
The doctors assure us that they are working very aggressively to clear up Donna's lungs. Please also keep these doctors in your prayers. As we get more and more information we are finding out that Donna's situation is very rare because of the combination of complications she has experienced. This situation is stretching the doctors' knowledge and experience beyond the limits. Please pray that their research will uncover the key to Donna's healing and hopefully give them a basis for future patients with these same needs.

Hang in there Donna. God is in control some thing good is going to come out of all this. It may be beyond our mere motal understanding but it will come. I'm praying for you.
ReplyDeleteKeep up all of the hard work Donna. You really are the strongest person I know. We will be praying for the doctors, staff, and caretakers for all of the time and endless effort each and every day that they put in. May god bless each and every one of you in a very special way.

Hello Donna. I am sorry that you are going through everything that you are going through. I pray you will be able to start feeling a little better, and get back on the doing and feeling better track.
ReplyDeleteWe had a Hunger Auction concert at SMLC tonight. There were quite a few from Antioch there, and they were asking "How is Donna?". We all love you, and pray for you.
I love you very much
