Pray for Meredith

Wednesday

Meredith took her medicines in about 5 minutes time tonight!   And her foot seemed less painful tonight.  Josh’s Aunt Grace who is here visiting has been amazed and her progress just in 24 hours, particularly with the taking of the meds and the foot issue.

Tomorrow afternoon we take her to Build-a-Bear, and she’s excited about it.  If the field trip goes well they will give us a pass for this weekend to take her out somewhere in the area — a family outing.

“You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds, O God our savior.” Ps. 65:5


Meredith’s story

Eight year old Meredith has been in the hospital since April 27th, first in a medically induced coma and now for continued occupational and physical therapy. The doctors were baffled for over 3 weeks and didn't know what had caused her seizures and illness.

On May 13, Meredith was diagnosed with Acute Necrotyzing Encephalopathy after being transferred to Cincinnati Children's Hospital the day before.

On June 1, after slowly being eased off her anti-seizure meds over the course of many days, Meredith started rehab. The doctors estimate that she may be released in mid-July.

Please pray that Meredith continues to improve and respond with her therapies and pray for continued strength for Meredith's parents, sister and extended family.
