OMG! Please pray for me UPDATE 8/22 more surgery

[Scooter's Mom]

Has anyone talked to Karen? How is she doing?

[Karen]

I just talked to her this evening, she called to update me. She had a terrible week, and while visiting her 94-year-old uncle, she laid down for a nap and when she woke up was completely blind - it turns out her retina had detached. So more surgery, emergency doctors visits, and tears and pain, but she's calmer now, and there is hope, after a scheduled doctor's appointment on Monday, that she will know more. She is hoping that by the end of the month she may be able to see well enough to read and post again, but it has been a trying time. Logan is fine, and I actually got to hear her! Karen had called when I was out, so I called her back and she was just in the middle of giving Logan an extended bellyrub! Logan normally has had enough after about 5 minutes, but not tonight, so when Karen stopped at about 45 minutes to answer the phone and chat with me, Logan actually barked at her, so I got to hear a "woo woof!" Karen said, "Okay, I'll give you a cookie." and then we we allowed to continue our conversation.

All your prayers are needed and appreciated, as any phone call would be. She misses everyone and send her love!

All prayers and love to Karen. I hope this gets repaired once and for all.

From past descriptions here, her doctor cares as much about the feelings of the patient as the condition to be treated. Bless him!

All good wishes for a great outcome.

I spoke to Karen this evening, she had more problems this week, and is not allowed to pick her head up, has to even sleep head facing down, until Monday. She would appreciate all prayers and well wishes.

What an ordeal! She must be so frightened. Extra prayers going up tonight for her.
