Hope

I have been mostly quiet on the internet for the past week or so, as our family has been dealing with a very difficult situation.

Anjalesa, my awesome sister-in-law is battling some serious medical issues right now. She has been in the Intensive Care Unit since Sunday February 3 when she went in for emergency gall bladder surgery.  We are not sure what is wrong with her, but her condition is very serious. We are hoping for a definitive diagnosis either tomorrow or Thursday. 

If you are reading this, and you believe in prayer, PLEASE pray for the following:

1. A diagnosis and treatment plan
2. Increased blood circulation to her fingers and toes
3. Proper oxygen, to keep her off the ventilator
4. Peace and Calm in her spirit. When she is awake, she is sometimes calm and rational, and sometimes agitated...well...and rational.  In her defense, agitation seems to me like a perfectly rational response to her situation. Unfortunately, that agitation does not help her body to heal. We need peace and calm to reign in her mind.
 
The outpouring of support (prayer and otherwise) has been overwhelming, and we really appreciate this.  Please continue to wrap all of us in your prayers.

Thanks!

Emily
