Getting Better

25th May:Day 6 at ICU. Emily is getting better and she has been awake more often when we visit her. She is trying to move but her hands are pinned down. Doctors are trying to wean her off the ventilator. Her heart has been healed but her lungs are not that well yet. I will be seeing her again this evening and I really hope she has been successfully weaned off the ventilator. Pray Lord, please let her be weaned off the ventilator.

Although she looks better now that her water retention has subsided, she still looks very uncomfortable being restricted from moving her limbs and I cannot cradle her in my arms. I really hope she can get out of ICU soon so she can feel mummy's touch and embrace again.

Mother Mary, please help bring Emily's plight to our Father in heaven. Please intercede for her, ask our Lord to have mercy on her and let her recover quickly. Please let her come home, she has been away from home for 7 weeks now, staying in hospitals.

I ask this through Your son, Jesus Christ, Amen.
