One step at a time is the only way to take it. God Bless!
More prayers for Kelly, as for you and your family, in the name of Jesus Christ. Our Lord, and Savior King Messiah. Amen.
Prayers.
I had a tough day. But nothing compared to yours, or hers, brother.
Prayers continue.
Thank you for your updates. Continuing to pray for Kelly!
Kelly Prayer Update
Today was another mixed bag. The good news is that her kidney numbers were up, but her liver numbers were down. They tried to wean Kelly off the ventilator, but she was just too weak right now to breath on her own and she still has some noticeable fluid in the lungs. She has not really had any nourishment through her stomach for weeks. But after the GI procedure she had yesterday, she is not bleeding in her stomach, so she is finally starting to absorb the food through her feeding tube. So that is the good news.
She is awake and aware but can’t speak because of the ventilator. It is obvious that she is both worried and depressed, especially when the doctors come in and right in front of her use terms like “Well, it’s not game over yet.”
Some of the doctors are optimistic and some are pessimistic. She has so many issues that when they fix one, another problem crops up. She had a compromised immune system to begin with because of her liver problem and when she got the blood infection it pretty much snowballed to all of her internal organs. The infection appears to be under control although something is still hiding somewhere so they are keeping her on antibiotics.
It is a difficult road. We continue to be positive and hopeful. She is holding her own despite all the problems and if we can get the stomach and lung issues resolved we think she might be over the hill.
Your prayers mean more to us than you can imagine.
Thanks to all of you for your prayers and support.
Faith,
Marlowe
Prayers continuing for Kelly.
Her being able to absorb nutrients has to be good for everything to improve. I’m still praying with you, Marlowe.
Love,
Sara
I pray to Jesus for Kelly and you all who are there for her.
Prayers ongoing.
Praise the Lord!
Two steps forward and one back is still a step forward.
May the Holy Spirit give You and Your family the strength to maintain through this ordeal (and Kelly, now that She is awake and aware).
Continued Prayers lifted.
Prayers for strength and courage continue for Kelly and for all of you who love her and are still worried sick about her future.
God, please hold her close in Your powerful arms......

Almighty Father, please send your Angels to watch over and guard Kelly as You heal her and make her whole. Please guide her physicians and provide for the needs of all concerned. I ask this in the Holy Name of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen.

More prayers ... I can only imagine how stressful this all is ... more prayers.
Matt 18:20
Lord Jesus, that You would continue to uphold Your Servant Kelly and bring her to complete healing. Amen
A great healing passage from Isaiah
Isaiah 58:
6 Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice
and untie the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free
and break every yoke?
7Is it not to share your food with the hungry
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter
when you see the naked, to clothe them,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?
8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn,
and your healing will quickly appear;
then your righteousness[a] will go before you,
and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.
9 Then you will call, and the Lord will answer;
you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.
