Update: Day 17 {please pray}

Everett still has not woken up or moved and his EEG machine is not showing much activity. His lactate is still high and is not coming down which signals the death of cells.  The two main things that are acceptable to this are his brain and gut.  Radiology is looking at images of his gut they took and they are taking Everett down for a CT Scan at 10.  It’s 9:45 here and they are taking him down soon. Please please pray for a miracle in his sweet little body.

  7. Praying for a miracle. And singing Ellie Holcomb over your boy and you:
    “Here when the healing hasn’t happened yet
    Here in the middle of the desert place
    Here in the middle when I cannot see Your face
    Here in the middle with Your outstretched arms
    You can see my pain and it breaks Your heart”

  11. Hearts across the internet have taken Everett in. I check updates all the time and send prayers even more. There would be a hug for you in person. Even though we have never met! Better yet… and instead…. always lifting you all up in prayer. Peace, healing, wisdom for your family and hospital staff. And praise to a God who lives, a God who cares, and who has prepared a place for us all because of grace.
