UPDATE ON FAITH! I just talked to my beautiful daughter.
Her husband was driving her home from the hospital!
After a multitude of tests she's back to square one, but she's feeling better than she has for many months.
The blood cleansing is finished, and the tubes have been removed from her jugular vein. She received two units of blood.
Her blood pressure is almost normal, and none of the tests showed anything abnormal.
The verdict now is that the MS is attacking the part of the brain which sends signals to the heart. This is causing the slow heart rate and low blood pressure which in turn is causing the seizures.
She hasn't had a seizure now for two days, and that's longer than she's gone in months.
If the seizures resume, the next stop is UCLA where they will check for automic responses to determine which part of the brain is being attacked.
She's not fixed, folks, but God granted our prayers. She's not facing any new and deadly malady, just the same old MS.
I know I left out a lot of people on the ping, but I want to thank you all so very much for your prayers.
I told Faith that a lot of people were praying for her.
She said, "Well, it worked, as usual. Tell them all that I thank them and God bless them for their love."
1 Cor.13:13 - "And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."

This is the first time I have seen this thread. Those pics of the baby are both adorable and moving. Having had a son in the hospital for a month at his birth puts a whole new paint job on things. The pictures made me go hug my little man.
I will say a prayer and I hope life brings joy and healing.

Thank God for the good report, TC. Your lovely Faith certainly has the heart of a warrior--and the smile of an angel. I'm praying for her daily, and for you too --and her husband and all who care for her. It's so important for you all to stay upbeat for her, which you are doing admirably. Does she have any children?
Dear Lord, bless Faith and her family, keep them strong in spirit, love, and trust in You. Please carry them through every day with a smile on their lips and their hearts full of praise.

That's wonderful that Faith is able to come home. But we're NOT done praying yet Uncle TC!! Faith and you both need us and we're all going to keep this going for her.
Isn't it wonderful how everyone rallies and comes forward for the good, the much needed love and prayer for one of our own? We forget politics, and other issues and join together for one purpose... to help Faith. God does work wonders... and helps us put our priorities where they should be.
Our prayers have never stopped for Faith, or for you, and they will continue..
Our love and hugs...

Beautiful Faith, May God continue to place His loving hands on your body, and heal every cell.
This is Logan's Miracle Room. We have seen God's miracles, and we humbly ask for miracles to continue in the lives of Faith and her sweet daddy.
Love,
Donna

I'm glad that Faith is feeling a bit better. We won't stop praying for her, though. <:)
To: TexasCowboy
Faith our Prayers continue for you.
TC Praise Be to God and in Latin too.
I wish we could give blood but we can't.
Good reminder though with Faiths' medical needs that if you can give blood in most towns RedCross comes through monthly.... take a nap and give some blood everybody. Oceanperch.
