Hi all, it's Aunt Nic again. I'm still at the hospital with little Preslee. Ash and Pat asked that I explain some of the medical stuff that is going on. When Preslee went into cardiac arrest, all of the blood rushed to her major organs to try to keep her alive. That has all been ok so far. Her little lungs and kidneys are all stabilizing. The hard part now is her brain. Because of the lack of oxygen, Preslee's little brain is swelling and there is nothing that the medical team can do. Her little brain will swell for awhile and so we wait....and wait....and wait...and love her and talk to her and hold her little hand and kiss he chubby cheeks. After 72 hours the swelling will start to subside and then we will see what happens from there. They will assess the brain damage and then go from there. Pat and ashley have read you comments and are so appreciative of all your thoughts and prayers. They have felt the power of your fasting. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

I am Connie Greene, Jessica Greene's Aunt.
ReplyDeleteI am at the University of Utah photographing a teen girls camp called "Be The Best You", There are 240 teens and 47 faculty members. Barbara Barrington Jones is the director of this program, Jessica is an Alumni of this camp. Jessica e-mailed me just before I was to leave for the Huntsman Cancer Center to participate in a service project for the Primary Childrens Hospital. The girls hand tied 240 fleese blankets to give to the hospital for the ill children.
I told Barbara about your little precious daughter Preslee. Barbara announced it to the group of nearly 300 and asked that they all include Preslee and your family in their prayers each night at devotionals. The girls gave me a blanket to deliver to Preslee tomorrow for them.
I know the power of Prayer!!!
OUR PRAYERS ARE ALL WITH YOU!!
Sincerely,
Connie Greene

I've never in my life prayed for a specific person that i've never met. (of course I pray for the missionaries, soldiers, etc. But never as individuals.) As I found out about your sweet little girl and what you are going through, I thought about my own little girl, and I could not fathom what you must be going through. I felt compelled SO strongly to pray for your Preslee and for your entire family. So I did. I knelt and prayed for people I've never met and I felt an imense amount of love for you.
ReplyDeleteJust know, that complete strangers are on your side, and are pleading with Heavenly Father for your family. And I KNOW I'm not the only one!
My prayers are still with you.
