Dear Prayer Team,
From the Covenant Church Visitation Coordinator -
Please continue in fervent prayer for Baby Mae, Rachael, and Joe. Joyce sent us this email from Rachael who is desperately in need of our love and prayers for God’s comfort and peace tonight. She asked me to print it as it was written:
“Hi everyone,Just wanted to give another update. They extubated Mae today - meaning they pulled out the breathing tube that is making her lungs breathe. This did not go well. She was working really hard to breathe, but her heart rate started going down and it was bad. There were about 15 people in the room, alarms going off - they made us leave. They got her re-intubated and had to put another IV in, but because her veins are all blown, they had to do it in a vein on her scalp. She is resting okay now - sleeping. They think that her throat was swollen from the tube and that is why she could not breathe on her own. Next time they will give her steroids beforehand to reduce the swelling.She has been having some blood clots in her diaper. The nephrologist is working on this. They are doing another ultrasound tonight.I didn't really think it could get worse then yesterday -and it did. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Please keep them coming. It is all just really, really scary. I feel a bit assuming sending these emails to you all, and I know you have other things going on in your lives, but for some reason it makes me feel better. Will update soon. Love, Rachael”Thank you for your precious and powerful prayers tonight.In Christ alone,JudyJudy CaldwellAssistant to Visitation MinistryCovenant Church
