Pray for Meredith

Normal life

Posted by: on: July 28, 2009

Three months ago yesterday Meredith was first admitted to the hospital.  Three months ago today she had her first major seizure and was put into a coma.  Since coming home last night she rode her scooter, played with her dog, slept peacefully in her own bed, played and fought with her sister and played Wii with her Dad.  Meredith is still healing, but there is no doubt that God has restored her this far and will continue His work in her. 

Posts might not happen as frequently now, but I thank each of you for the time you’ve spent praying for our family, reading the blog, and encouraging us in so many ways.   More to come as normal life allows!


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.
