Carrie had a scary night last night.From me: I am sensing in my prayers the weariness, the exhaustion, of the parents, who still have several young children at home; that the parents and other adult caregivers need gusts of grace and sustaining grace and rest for this present time.We've heard from Carrie's mom and her mom's sister, P, this morning. P and her husband, D, drove over last night--through bad driving conditions--blizzard and snow. That's the kind of weather Carrie was driving in last Thursday to get to work.
A volunteer med vac young man came to see the family at the hospital last night and told them they were at the scene right away and had Carrie ready by the time the paid EMS people got there through the snow. Driving was very bad. They wanted an Air Vac to move Carrie, but they couldn't fly -- blizzard weather -- too dangerous. A Sheriff was a few hundred yards behind Carrie's car and was able to quickly rally the necessary support.
Carrie had an up and down night. It was hard on Carrie to be moved for the CT scan. P said the neurosurgeon said they didn't find anything unusual with it. They needed to get her swelling down, so they injected saline. That helped one thing, but her blood pressure went up. They did something with sugar injection and her heart beat too rapidly.
I may be wrong about what affected what in the last few sentences, but they were working diligently trying to get Carrie stabilized. Her cranial pressure went up too high last night, but it seems to be coming down now.
It's really good P and her husband D there. They will be able to make life a bit easier for Carrie's parents and sister, L.
Love, [my aunt and uncle]
Thank you, everyone who is keeping watch by Carrie's side, and with her parents and all her family.

God bless you Gretchen as I'm sure you are mentally fatigued from all this. I continue to pray for Carrie's medical caregivers for wisdom to take care of her. Carrie's family is also in my prayers. God bless you all.
Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.
Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

God Bless Carrie, and the rest of her family. They are surely exhausted with fear and fatigue by now. God grant them the peace they need. Also grant the physicians, nurses, and therapists wisdom to deal with Carrie. In Christ's name, Amen.

Prayers for Carrie from Arkansas. - OB1
Continued prayers for Carrie, and her family that God brings her back to good health quickly.
From me: I am sensing in my prayers the weariness, the exhaustion, of the parents, who still have several young children at home; that the parents and other adult caregivers need gusts of grace and sustaining grace and rest for this present time.
I can't imagine how tired they all must be ...
Prayers for strength, calmness and reassurance.
We're praying for Carrie and all the family.
