Holly

Just under a month ago Holly had her second Nerve burn. They told her the nerve burn should last at least 3 months, but probably somewhere more in the range of 4-6 months. It was so encouraging to know she could start the process of regaining strength in her legs, and to begin walking again.

Yesterday I received a text that read something like "the pain in my feet is back. please pray for me extra today, I'm scared."

I was at my grandma's 85th birthday party when I got the text. Those words were some of the hardest I've ever had to read. And it wasn't happening to me, it is happening to her. I cannot fathom how she must feel right now. But, hopefully she knows that her friends will be here for her no matter what.

Can you guys please say an extra prayer for her this week? And maybe leave some words of encouragement for her here. She could probably use the extra support right now.

Holly- I love you. so much. While I was driving home today, and praying for you, this song came on Klove.

I know...I know..

I NEVER have time to post anymore. I miss you guys. But i'm still here, and i'm still reading your posts, even if i don't have time to comment. I'm still here, and reading.

But, I have a prayer request, and if you can get this out to as many friends as possible, that'd be awesome.

7 weeks ago my friend Holly had pain in her chest, just below the ribs. The drs thought she needed to have her appendix removed, so they did that. Why?! we have NO idea, the pain was on the opposite side. 3 days after surgery, holly was back in the hospital, the drs couldn't figure out what was wrong, and released her. Valentines day, she was back in again. Again, they couldn't figure out what was wrong and she was released.

Then, last Tuesday night, she was celebrating her one year anniversary with her fiance, and she lost all feeling in her feet. about 20 minutes later that feeling came back, but now she has EXCRUCIATING pain in her feet. If anyone touches her feet, or she has to walk, she looks like she's going to either scream or cry from the pain.

Right after the foot thing, she became very sensitive to light, and had her mother turn all the lights in the house off. In the ambulance ride over to RGH they had to use flashlights because of her sensitivity. She's doing ok with light now that seemed to only last a little while, but the other stuff is still bothering her.

Dr's have no idea whats wrong, they don't know what to do next. As of yesterday, they've been sedating her, and trying to relieve some of the pain she's in.

Please pray for the wisdom of the doctors in this situation. They gotta figure out whats going on with her, so they can figure out how to treat it. Its so hard to see someone who is normally so full of life in so much pain. Especially when you care so much about that person.

Please pray. And leave an encouraging comment. I'll make sure they all get to Holly when I see her next.
