Prayer requested for Sionnsar's family

[trussell]

 

 

 

It appears that Mrs. Sionnsar is experiencing complications after surgery...following is a communication received from Sionnsar, Please keep this family in your prayers ...

The basic problem is that she doesn't have full control over one foot.

I don't know what's going on today though. When I got here she was very doped up on something, they were concluding a nerve stimulation test and then immediately sent her for (yet another) MRI where she is now, and surgery is set for 4. No time to talk.

I did hear a doctor say that there are a couple of possibilities, "compression" and something else I didn't quite hear but which sounded like degenerative disease (though I think I heard that it's arrestable). Somehow the surgery will tell them tomorrow.

7/24 Update:

Cane is gone; she gets by fine without it. And now she is able to carry things up and down the stairs.

Physical therapy continues, and she's not able to walk long distances, but the improvement is tremendous!

Oh, and she's back on the church organ bench as of a week ago.

Things are definitely positive!!!

So glad to hear that! She has remained in my prayers.

Most excellent!

Recovery is near 100% and, as she said she would, in September she danced at our daughter's wedding. (And in October she was able to endure airplane coach class well enough to join me on a business trip to Paris -- did I mention that French is her other native language, per her screen name? She had so wanted to see Paris again...)

Now the circle is closing. She got a call from a friend this afternoon; a member of her firend's church has been diagnosed with Guillaume-Barre Syndrome (GBS), and her friend asked if LibreOuMort ("Mrs. Sionnsar") would counsel the family as to the road ahead.

It won't be easy for them; the husband and breadwinner is the one diagnosed and in the hospital. Fortunately this is one of the Seattle hospitals knowledgeable about GBS and so he should receive good treatment. And their church has come around to uphold and support his wife and seven children.

But LoM can give them hope with some authority -- as she says, last April she wasn't even able to walk or stand but look at her now. I don't know the particulars, but it sounds like this might be an even earlier detection of GBS than LoM's, which was exceptionally early.

She is planning to visit the family in the next day or two (they're less than an hour's drive away).

So now her trial becomes a blessing for others. (We've been here before; this is a blessing to us.)

Thank you all for your prayers. And I bid your prayers for this man and his family.

Prayers...and may it turn out as well for this family as it did for Mrs. Sionnsar and my brother...

[tuliptree76]

It's wonderful that the recovery is almost 100%!

Prayers sent for the member of the friend's church.

Oh my gosh, just read this. Prayers coming and a later post.

Prayers for your family, Sionnsar.

Thank you for your faithfulness in supporting my recovery in prayer. It certainly made a huge difference as I did not know what to expect. I cannot take credit for my healing - only God who provided my loving hudband, the skilled surgeon, the physicians, the nurses, the physical and occupational therapists and the loyal friends and neighbors who helped me in so many ways should be given credit. Yes, I worked hard, and am still working to regain full physical health - it has been a long road, but the time and effort have been worthwile.

Again, thank you for your love and support.

P.S.: Will there be dancing at the FReeper Christmas party?

Praise God!!! Thank you for the update. Prayers continue. And I join in earnest prayer for the friend at church.
