Asking for prayers

[ Edited ]

My grandaughter,Lorraine,is on life support.She stopped breathing 3 times this morning.If nothing changes by Tuesday they will remove life support.

 

Lorraine is only 45 yrs old.She has had Disbetes all her life and has been  on dialisis 3 x a week for many yrs.

 

On Friday her body got swolen up like a balloon.She was admited to the hospital but released against our wishes on Sat afternoon,still swollen.

 

This morning she convulsed and stopped breathing. The Frist responders revived her 3 times.

 

 

 

In the Er she stopped breathing 5 more times. They put her on life support which they will remove in 2 days if nothing changes. 

 

They say she will have extensive brain damage.

 

Please pray she is not suffering (they have put her her to sleep) and that Gods will be done and that God gives us,her family the strength to accept it ,whatever happens.

 

Thank you all............

I'm sure my post will get poofed because I'm quoting scripture, but it is an appropriate response to your post, so I'll take my chances & hope you see it.  If it is God's will that he call her home at this time, just remember...

What a nightmare.  Of course you have my prayers...for your granddaughter and your entire family.

 

Just know the hospital staff will make sure she is not in any pain...they are very good about that.

 

Sending you a cyber-hug, @MalteseMomma .  😢
