EmyG is stable, but still critical. She had a good night. They were able to back off on some of her blood pressure medication, and back off on some of her respiratory support. She is not out of the woods yet.
Last afternoon, the doctor told us that this is going to be an hour by hour situation. Death is a real possibility. She got to meet her grandmomma, her chachin, her grandma and grandpa, her uncle Joey and aunt Hannah, and her Tio Theo.We gathered around her and prayed Psalms over her, prayed over her, and watched.
We are thankful to God that she is in a better spot at the moment. We are riding the hour by hour roller coaster, aware that at any moment things can change. God worked through her team and stabilized her, his sovereignty down to the atom allowing her body to be sustained.
The plan for today is to continue to watch her. They are going to continue to back off on her pressure medications, the paralytic, and other sedative drugs.
It is so incredibly hard not to focus on the microscopic moment. I’ve made this comparison before regarding God leading the Israelites away from famine and into Egypt, out of Egypt and into the desert, out of the desert and then to the promised land. Maybe this was our Red Sea moment. I pray that God sustains Rebekah and I, and put it on our heart to focus on where he is taking us, and not dwell and wallow in the moment.
Please pray for her life, her comfort, healing and recovery from the infection and strokes.
Thank you for an update, Ezra. Please know, you are not alone. There are many lifting EmyG and family in prayer. I pray for Emy’s healing to come with the most ease and comfort. I pray for moments of peace through the journey. God is good and will not lead you astray. Just breathe and know you are not alone. Thank you, God.
