If it's not one thing, it's something else....

Good Evening my friends,
I have been out in the sun a lot this week. The heat index has been horrible around the coastal areas. Lots of canoeing, and now lots over brain fuzz to go with it at the moment. Hopefully I'll be coherent this evening.....

Makenzie has another trip to the OR tomorrow morning to examine her right foot and change the dressings on her left. The decision will be made as to whether or not they will sew up her right foot, indicating that the infection is not within the tissues. If they feel they need more time to treat it, they will leave the area open with a wound vac attached. If things go well, they will stitch the area together. That would also mean the possibility of going home soon is around the corner. Hopefully that will be the case. Pam & Makenzie are terribly homesick right now. Please pray about this.

The pain in her foot is now more controlled, but she is experiencing terrible pain in her gut. This is causing some serious problems with eating pretty much anything. This must be resolved before leaving Hermann Hospital. She also needs to eat to gain some stregnth. This has been a trying week with this matter. Please pray about this as well.

Thank you again my friends for being there. My eyes are crossing so I'm going to bed.....
See you tomorrow!
Mary

  1. Hang in there MaKenzie. We're still praying for you to regain strength. Also praying that the Lord will heal any stomach and digestive problems that are interfering with swallowing and eating. Praying for both of your feet to heal in Jesus name, so that you and your family CAN GO HOME. You've come a very long way--the worst and longest part of your journey is over. Remember how much we love you!
