Re: Urgent prayers needed for new mama Kelsea

Poor thing is still on a ventilator, and also on an ECMO (usually used during open heart surgery) that pumps the blood from her body, removes CO2 and oxygenates it, and returns it to her body.  Her oxygen levels are up from the 40s (can't even imagine) to the 80s.  However, she is being treated for a blood infection.  If they can get her stabilized, they hope to wean her off the ventilator this week, and insert a trach.  As you can see, continued prayers are certainly needed.  I appreciate your continued concern and good wishes.

Healing doesn't always roar

Sometimes it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying "I will try again tomorrow."

 

Blessings to Kelsea and family

Re: Urgent prayers needed for new mama Kelsea

Please continue to pray for the medical teams and auxiliary staff treating Kelsea also.  The medical personnel in our hospitals are exhausted, worried about their own health and emotionally drained.  I know this because my son is a Registered Nurse and my daughter is a Nurse Practiuoner.   Of course I want Kelsea to recover and be with her husband and baby and her other three children.

Re: Urgent prayers needed for new mama Kelsea

An update:  She is off the ventilator, with a trach, but still on the ECMO, which is much longer than it should be.  She is still in a coma.  They are treating a blood infection and battling clotting, which is a Covid-related problem.  It's coming up on four weeks.  The only good thing is that she is in a highly respected teaching hospital and her doctor consults worldwide with other physicians.

 

Thanks so much for your continued prayers and good thoughts for this family.
