Jon spent most of the day with Selah and worked on training on her care. He was able to hold her and love on her. We did an interview with the CBS/FOX station to thank the viewers of the Rochester community for everything that have done. Then I went to the hospital tonight and held her for about an hour and worked on her arms and hands. She seemed to relax into me some.
The only thing she is still dealing with is high blood pressures. They go up and down depending on the times of her meds. She is being placed on a patch to help regulate her BP hopefully. The idea is to keep her medicine constant with the hope that will help. She spiked high last night for awhile. So she is still in the PICU at this time.
Everything else is going good physically. Neurologically there has been no change. Please keep praying for her.
Tomorrow is Shad's 9th bday and my ? Bday LOL. He and I share a birthday. We are taking him to the small zoo here and out to eat. He is really excited. Shad has been such a great kid and so helpful through this past 5 weeks. We want to give him a special day.
Thank you for your prayers. I hope to do a long blog tomorrow, sometimes an idea/thoughts just kinda churn around till I have to write it, I'm telling you blogging is good for your mental status:)
"Our life maybe a crazy life but it's our life" I'm married to a pastor of a small rural church, who is also the prison chaplain. We have 5 kids, each with their unique story. I love gardening & we all love the outdoors. Our life is not the way we planned it to be, but we are learning to trust God in every area. Come and read about our life as we live it to the fullest!
We love the Rochester zoo. My family and I live about an hour west of Rochester and we were actually at the museum of play on Friday and Saturday. I thought about you all and wish I could meet up with you sometime. Your family and especially Selah are always in my prayers. A couple friends of mine were actually at the Women of Faith conference and I told them how you were there and your story. Faith is just amazing.
ReplyDeleteWe have placed Selah's name on the altar for healing and every Sunday morning, we lay hands on her name and pray over her life. Just wanted to encourage you...
ReplyDeleteAll of the pictures are lovely. Our church has an exact replica of Peggy's Cove Lighthouse on the property and you can see it from I68 (Maryland).
Much love to you!
Praying continually for Selah and your family!!!!!!!!!
