More prayers needed

Hey all, life sure can throw some curve balls at you.

Long story made incredibly short... I was in the ER with Ashley til 2:30 last night (or 2:30 this morning?) Anyhow, it was waaaayyyy past my bedtime and I left without her and no answers as to WHY she was there.

She was having back spasms, tight chest, FAST heart beat, and wheezing like she was having an asthma attack. They thought she might have a blood clot in the lungs... ruled that out. She does have a serious inflamation in her lungs, but they think its a symptom of something else.

They ran Cat Scans, X-rays, drew blood, drew more blood, yet more again. She seemed to deteriorate as the night went on. As I was leaving her, she had to go to the bathroom and just the 4 foot walk knocked her out.

Perhaps they say, God works in mysterious ways. He realized she wasn't heading the caution we were telling her about her recent behavior and she certainly wasn't all that concerned about her dad.... so He gave her a serious wake-up call that she couldn't ignore.

Can you share some prayers and good thoughts for her? I feel so bad for her.... never saw her so scared in my life. She might be rebelling (for lack of a better word) at the moment but nobody deserves to be sick like this. :(

Prayers coming from my way

Oh no. I am sorry this happened. And I do hope this will help her see what her dad is going through as well. It's not fun to be sick, especially if you don't even know WHY you are sick. That is scary.
Your family will be in my thoughts.

prayers! I hope the docs will ask about her lifestyle...and you and dad may need to fill them in since she is still living at your house.

I hope she is better soon!

Prayers on the way, that it is something fixable, and she'll feel better in a few days.

Prayers from RI for you, her, and the whole family.

Dear God,

I know there is a message in this incident, as well as a lesson to be learned. We may never know what or why, and that's okay. But please, take care of Ashley, watch over this wonderful family, help them through this most difficult time and make them all stronger. Most of all God, strengthen the bond between them and help them love each other and come together as a family.

Amen


Kim,

You have my number. Call me anytime. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

(((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))

Kim, I'm so sorry to hear this.:( Hopefully the doctors will be able to find out what's wrong with her. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

Thoughts and prayers going out, Kim :(

Prayers on the way. I know how scary it is to be in the hospital and not have any answers. *hugs*

*HUGS* GREAT vibes your way! :(

Thanks guys (((hugs))))

I just got back from the hospital. We still have no idea what's happening, other than a lung infection and racing pulse. Her BP is back to normal and she looks MUCH better this afternoon. She'll most likely be discharged tonight (goodness knows they can't keep her for more than 24 hours! :rolleyes: )

They're thinking it might be a serious asthma attack, but its boggling their mind because she never once showed any signs of asthma in the past, and to have an asthma attack this bad, you'd most certainly have noticed something.

She's on nebulizer treatments, which amazed Cam to no end. He was fascinated by the smoky mask on mommy's face :p I left because a 1 year old and hospital do not mix. Hubby's still there.

Oh dear poor you, sending you lots of well wishes, positive vibes and good thoughts for Ashley to make a good recovery and be home as soon as possible, take care and keep us posted.

Kim, have they checked for internal bleeding(ulcer)? It sounds like the symptoms I had years ago with that. :( Maybe mono?

Any more updates?? It is horrible to be sick AND not know why!!!!

Prayers on the way. Keep us posted.
