Prayer Request (OT)
 
hi my beloved SR friends. My youngest son Jake (14 yrs old) had the H1N1 flu last month and has suffered from side effects since then....Friday he took a real turn for the worse and ended up at the hospital on Saturday. We've been here ever since and the doctors have said it's going to be a while yet. He is having asthma/lung inflammation that is just causing him to struggle with catching his breath. He is on steroids, breathing treatments, etc. and very slowly improving.

I would appreciate any prayers and/or healing thoughts sent his way. He has not complained even once through this and it's been nasty. It's a honor to be his mom.

Thanks ya'll!!!!

as a mom I am thinking of you and your son and praying that today will be
much better for you both. I know you are worried but know that your son has the best of care where he is and that he has a loving , caring mom right there beside him. That's medicine in itself and powerful too. Keeping you in my prayers.

I definitely feel the love and the prayers. Thank you each of you so very much. I truly love my SR community.

Jake is about the same but thankfully no worse. The pulmonologist is coming tomorrow and hopefully he will have some new ideas. I'm trying my best to take decent care of myself. I just took oldest son out to dinner to remind him that he is loved and has a momma too.

The therapy dog came into his room today and spent an hour snuggled up to him in his bed. Huge smiles from Jake and greatly lifted spirits. Ex-husband and I are working well together and that's nice.

Thank you again for all prayers! Donna

Sending prayers Jake's way for a speedy healing. On the news I heard that doctors were having some luck with a treatment that is used on preemies where the blood is removed from the body and oxygenated then replaced. Just thought I would put that out there. Hugs, Marle
