Prayer Request for Krista F (from JimF)


Recommended Posts

Hope I get this out right, been a rough few days. Background is Kris was born with water on the brain and had a shunt placed to drain the excess. This was revised when she hit adulthood years back. Last few weeks she hasn't felt that good with being tired, shaky, confusion, bad sleep, etc, etc. Everything pointed to infection but nothing was found. During the snowstorm last week she woke up confused and so got to go to the ER in the blizzard where she got a bag of fluid and.... she seemed OK. So this time the infection that no one can find must have dehydrated her. Two nights ago she got stomach pain and off to the ER again. She received morphine and that helped.

Yesterday the docs found out her shunt is not working 100% and she had excess fluid in her skull. That would explain a lot and would be good news after a quick operation for drainage was done. But.... yesterday she slept all day and today she starts to wake up but is not aware of her surroundings. Top of that she tries to get out of bed and is pretty agitated. So the docs, who want her to wake up fully, have to sedate her to keep the thrashing down.

Hoping tomorrow she is more aware of everything but man oh man is this scary.

Any prayers and/or thought would be appreciated....

Jim
