Prayers please .. for Onyx's grandson
6-11-12

Posted on 06/11/2012 2:41:20 PM PDT by STARWISE

Please hold Onxy's dear grandson, Brady, in your prayers.

From Onyx over the weekend:

"My 17 year old grandson, Brady is at Georgetown Hospital, Grand Cayman Island, in ICU with severe head injuries .. a distracted driver using a cell phone crashed into Brady and his Dad on their scooter.

Brady was thrown 20 yards. He laid there comatose for 45 minutes before the ambulance arrived from the hospital less than 1 mile away. (Nothing like free medicine).

He has severely bruised lungs and is getting oxygen, and has to be kept highly sedated because of brain swelling and a small blood clot. His Dad is in surgery for crushed knee caps and several other fractures.

DrO talked with his doctors and determined they’re completely competent, (Praise God) and said this is not life threatening.

No internal bleeding, but they have not yet checked for broken bones or fractures. As with all severe brain injuries, until they’re able to bring Brady to consciousness, the extent of the trauma and injury to his brain is an unknown.

If the pressure caused by the swelling doesn’t dissipate, they’ll have to go in. Just a small amount of bleeding, and the blood clot is small, as of 1:00AM

~~~~

Update this afternoon (after 6 hrs of surgery):

"The new CAT scan showed it all perfect.

The pressure reading is perfect and the swelling is zero. They stopping the sedation med already!

The doctor squeezed him and he showed a reaction!!!

Praise God. Praying that when Brady is taken out of his medically induced coma, that he will still be Brady - that is what I''m praying for."

Prayers up.

And just an fyi to all who prayed for my dad recently. He’s doing real well from his little head surgery incident.

My beautiful Onyx, I will be praying for your grandson all night long and week. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as well that you are able to keep your strength during this time. I mentioned this to Julie and she is hoping for a full recovery and the kids will say an additional prayer tonight during bedtime prayers. Love ya and hope all is well.

Oh Onyx,
I am so sorry to have left your son out of the prayers. He will be part of this as well. I read the entire post, but was so concerned about your grandson that I briefly forgot about your son’s injuries. I apologize for that....old age...

Many prayers for Onyx’s much loved grandson... and all other family members and loved ones. And a special prayer for Onyx during this crisis...

Thanks for the post, starwise.

I rarely post on here anymore, and due to some health stuff really haven’t been reading much lately either, but I’m so glad I saw this.

You know I’ve prayed for (you and) the three grandkids since I made the quilts all those many years ago - and I have off and on as God’s brought them to mind since or as I see the squares of “their” quilts in my quilt.

I’ll be praying specifically now that I saw this request.

Dear Onyx,
I am praying for your dear Brady and his dad. May they be returned to perfect health as quickly as possible.

Lord, please keep Brady and his dad close by You. Comfort them and their family. Let each member of the family feel the peace and love of Your presence in a real and tangible way. Let both of these injured recover quickly, completely, and courageously. Allow this experience to increase their strength and determination. I ask all this in Jesus’ name. Amen

Onyx, you’re the best. My thoughts are with you.
