Some of you already know that Mary Graham gave us quite a scare in the early morning hours. Because of her heavy sedation, her partially collapsed lungs and some built up secretions in her throat and chest, she stopped breathing and had to be placed on a ventilator. They were able to get her breathing again while trying to intubate her, but then she stopped again before they got the tube in place. Needless to say it was very scary to experience. The doctor explained that all of the things combined with her lungs and major surgery, a baby her age and size just can't do everything on her own. Now she is resting comfortably after being a bit agitated for a while. Her stats are good and she is stable and doing well considering all she went through. They did a partial blood transfusion, but she got a fever so they stopped for now and are constantly checking her labs. We aren't sure how long they will want to keep her on the ventilator, possibly a couple days, so she can rest and heal.
Please continue to lift her up. Pray for her to continue to do well, show improvement and have no more major set backs. Pray for the doctors and nurses to have wisdom in how to best treat her and help her heal.
Last night shook me for sure. Please pray for us to trust in the Great Physician and know for certain that He has her in His hands. Thank you so much for praying and loving us.
Praying for y'all and that sweet baby.
