Now that Nancy is off the respirator she and I have had a chance to talk. She told me a story tonight that continues to give me goosebumps every time I think about it. Last week when she was hooked up to all of the equipment and all you could hear in her room was the sound of machines, she said it sounded to her like someone whispering in her ear "I'm with you, you'll be ok." I'm convinced that God speaks to all of us, we just have to make time to listen. I thank God for letting her know He was there and watching out for her.
She is doing fine. They are continuing dialysis to remove some of the fluid while trying to get her off the medication supporting her blood pressure. We're still not there yet but making progress. Her blood oxygen level is good and her heart rate has stablized. She is in good spirits and very calm.
Her leg continues to present issues. The clot has blocked the blood flow and it is too late to do anything to restore the flow to her lower leg. Which means they will have to amputate part of her right leg. She knows this and continues to be very strong and believe that everything will work out and she will be able to cope. I too believe that if anyone can do it Nancy can. And of course Mark and I will have her back and be there to support her.
Please continue to pray for her. The surgery will probably be sometime this coming week.
