Kathy Speaks
1 star|6 comments|September 19, 2007|617 reads
 
I am writing this blog from the Neuro ICU waiting room at the Lynchburg General Hospital.  Many of you have already heard about my daughter in-law Kathy.  Let me take a few minutes to give you an update and to ask for your continued prayers.

Yesterday morning at about 2:30 AM Kathy was up with her newborn son Luke, when suddenly she realized she couldn't talk.  She immediately woke her husband, Robbie and she was rushed to the hospital.  After hours of intense testing she was diagnosed with a blood clot that settled on the section of her brain that impacts speech.  This was probably a result of the stress of having a baby just a few days ago.

They immediately put her on blood thinners and 24 hours late I am glad to report she is doing much better.  Thank you so much for your prayer.  It made a difference.  She is now able to begin to put words together into sentences slowly.  She still has a way to go and the doctor's feel in six months she will be completely back to normal.  She is still in NICU and will be here until they can regulate her medication.  The progress she has made in the last 24 hours is absolutely wonderful.
Please pray for Kathy, Robbie, Evan and Luke as this family weathers a real storm in their lives.

103:1 <Of David.> Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let everything in me give praise to his holy name. 103:2 Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.

Praise the Lord!!!  We have been so concerned about Kathy, and have really been praying hard.  I am so thankful she is making great progress!  I tried calling the waiting room last night, but there was no answer.  Thanks for updating us here.

God is so good!

God is so faithful! What a blessing to know our God never lets us down! Thankful that Kathy is doing so well. Been praying for Rob, Kathy, and the little ones...and you and NeeNee and Mrs. Sprouse too. Our God is a God of healing...so evident in this situation.
Praise the Lord!

Due to work I am coming to the news after the fact, but Terry and I will pray for Kathy's progress and the entire family. God is such a great and caring God, it is a blessing to know she was able to alert Robbie and to have movement. Let everyone know they are loved and we are thinking of them.
