       Location: Somewhere way too hot | Today, i found my mom not feeling good. Not to long after i had to witness her seizure/ convulsate.. in which i called 911.
Finding out she had an anurism. After surgery at the second hospital, it was a wait and see process. Still in critical condition but her surgery went well. Afer heading home for the night, got a call saying they'd tried to stick a thing to drain fluid from her head through her neck. ( we were not aware nor gave permission) they ended up hitting her main artery! so now she's headed back to surgery to fix their mistake!
I need prayers for my mom! Thank God I was there to help her! Thanks everyone! |

       Location: Somewhere way too hot | Thank you everyone for you're prayers! it's much appreciated! Sorry for the horrible grammar too. A bit over whelmed with everything that happened today. She should have not even had this second surgery in the first place. But can't seem to get good answers why. Will continue to be in Icu for at least two weeks! Still in surgery now but hopefully out soon.
To all those else whom the Lord has tested lately, I pray they are well also.
God is good and with him anything is possible! |

       Location: Somewhere way too hot | Good morning/ afternoon! Thank you for everyones prayers and continued prayers!
Second surgery went well last night.
This morning they tried to wake her up, she opened an eye. She also had involuntary movement in her legs and arms. With her tongue, she tried getting the breathing aid out. She's back to sleep. In the room with her now keeping an eye on her!
She also uses the fit bit, so while she's out i've been trying to reach the 10,000 steps goal for her!
We still have a long road ahead! only day two. My family seems to be stronger today which is good. I will continue to be strong for my mom. Sometimes it's hard because my mind likes to replay what has happened. Since I witnessed it all. But I know that was God's plan to help my mom!
Thank you for you're prayers. Please continue to pray for a safe and well recovery! Hopefully to be back to normal someday!

   Location: Right Where I'm Meant To Be :) | Prayers for your momma and your family. I don't necessarily consider all of these struggles as God testing us. Without getting "too deep," The Lord has a plan for all of us. He is there for us to lean on in easy times and tough. Let your faith shine through to those around you. You are witnessing without even knowing it. Your momma loves you and she knows you love her. Be there and stay strong. Pray for the doctors' knowledge and we will continue to pray too. Ask questions as to what is happening and make sure you get clear answers You are her advocate right now, cowgirl up :) and God Bless  |

Thanks! I agree he has a plan for everyone. We may not understand it. I think if there is a challange it's more keeping our faith during the difficult times. But God has blessed me in many ways! I'm lucky to still have her here and to be there at the right time. I think she hears me everytime I enter the room! I want to hear her voice again though. I do ask alot of questions now! I'm a curious person naturally and like to see that the nurses know what they're talking about as well! My moms " Ride" is just beginning but she's a tough cowgirl at heart too! =) |

       Location: Somewhere way too hot | An update. They have continued to try and do assement tests. The last to times she's shaking alot ( due to the cooling monitor) Her brain pressure has gone up each time so they put her back on paralitics. We are now waiting for results of a CTA scan. To determine wether or not we'll have to do another surgery to or not. It's to help her brain relieve pressure! We are praying that she doesnt have to do this surgery! |

       Location: Somewhere way too hot | So much for a quiet restful weekend. The doctors came in today stating they wanted to do another surgery this time to open the areas that they have seen vasospasms already to help increase blood flow and reduce swelling. She is in surgery now as I type. But if this goes okay , we may not have to do the third surgery.
Hopefully we wont! Hopefully this current surgery will go well! Still need more prayers please. We appreciate it very much!! Thank you all! |

       Location: Somewhere way too hot | thank you all for the prayers. I can say tonight we were told she is in stable condition. Her two surgeries went well. She had the cranitonomy. Now we're worried about infection, and vassospasms, as well as brain pressure. It's hard to see her like that. I miss her around home incredibly! But God has showed us many miracles so far. Paitence is the key. I can't wait till she returns home. It'll be a long road! But please dont stop praying <3
I love my online barrel community family. Thanks again everyone!!! |
