Emergency prayer request! A mom friend of ours little 2 year old girl (Sky) was rushed to the Children’s Medical Center here in CT with multiple seizures (out of the blue). Her O2 stat was as low as 30 and they are keeping her in an induced coma. She’s not doing well at all. Please push this out to your followers for prayer for complete healing. Thank you!
Father, hear our prayer for Sky’s complete healing in body, soul, and spirit. Give her caregivers grace, compassion, wisdom, counsel, knowledge, understanding, skill, creativity, insight, and the proper technology to assist in her complete healing and give her and all who love her grace, peace, consolation, strength, faith, hope, and love. Mother Mary and St. Luke, pray for them. We ask all this, Father, through your Son Jesus Christ.
Update from mom:
They are keeping her on breathing tube and keeping her asleep until tomorrow because her airway is swollen from being intubated three times, they are pretty positive she had a complex febrile seizure, neurologist said based on ct scan he doesn’t think she needs brain scan but they don’t want breathing tube taken out in fear airway will close. She isn’t relying 100% on the ventilator which is good, meaning she is breathing with the machine, the machine isn’t doing all the work. She has woken up a couple times but quickly sedated (due to discomfort, and gagging and choking from breathing tube). Last night was very scary and Ryan and I thought we might lose her when she stopped breathing and they had a hard time getting her O2 up. It’s a moment that will haunt us forever. I’m just thankful to God that I had the motherly instinct to go check on her last night while she was in her crib and knew something was wrong. Thank you everyone for your support and prayers, it means a lot. Sky is a strong girl and stubborn, she will get through this and get back to being her crazy sassy self!
Thanks be to God through our Lord Jesus Christ!
