| Anna Grylls update Tuesday 8am
|
|
|
Anna is entering her second day of hypothermia treatment - keeping her cool so swelling is reduced. The doc says they'll finish it tomorrow and let her warm up. She's fairly well sedated right now so she doesn't shiver. Her arms and legs are so cold and stiff. She has shown another reflex - she withdraws her foot when pinched! It takes her a few seconds, and the movement is very slight, but it's there. She may need a blood transfusion today since her haemaglobin is low - probably becuase of all the labs they are taking. Pray that it's not necessary! She is mostly sleeping at the moment.
We are so encouraged by all the calls, comments, voicemails, and just to see how many people are viewing this blog. I can't begin to put it into words.
Please pray for Lael today, the devil would like to discourage her. We are all tired and need strength. Please just continue to pray for Anna's complete healing and no swelling of her brain. It sounds like the next 24-48 hours will be critical. The chief doctor took care to tell us that there is nothing he can do for her brain, which I appreciated so much because it makes it absolutely clear to everyone that all the glory for her complete recovery must go to God.
If God lays on your heart to call or text, please just do. I know Lael would appreciate words of encourgaement today. If we don't pick up please just leave a message.
Jay stayed up with her all last night - please pray for wonderful rest for her today - she's 8 months pregnant or so...
God bless you all. Thanks be to God!!!
Richard

May you be able to wait upon the Lord that you will renew your strength. I pray that you will see that He is fighting this battle for you. Our hearts go out to all of you and we continue to remember our little "China Doll" before the Lord, as well as all of you that are her continual companion there. All our love.

We're praying for you night and day - crying out to the Lord for your little dolly, as well as for your strength and faith. I copied and pasted all the updates as well as one of the pics from your website and sent it in an email to a many people around the world so they can also be in prayer. I hope that was ok. I love you all so much! More than words can express. God bless you richly! SHALOM! Joane. P.S. send my love to Jochebed, too.

Richard,
I was going to call today and your number didn't store in my phone right. If I can't get it from Sheryl, I'll call tomorrow. Lots of love and prayers.
Bubba, sorry I didn't remember what they called you last night!
Love
Sis Deb Beebe

A sister from our church asked me to blog for her as she's not sure how. I have copied and pasted what she sent to me.
"I prayed this morning that this little girl would have her life back. I just started to listen (after much pressing) to the Manifested Sons Of God. It was the same prayer. Please have the family know she has her healing and if there is any doubt, to listen to the first 2 mins of the above. I have the presence of HIM now."
I didn't realize that Danny Stemen knew you. Lucille just wrote and explained to me that you and Danny did alot of cutting up while he was there over Memorial weekend.
Anna is such a beautiful little girl. We're praying for all of you. Tell her to keep those shuffles coming. :-) Would love to see her do it.
Love, Danny and Michelle Stemen
